For the first time ever, India and the UK will celebrate the greatest feat known to man, which changed the world's view on the Great Indian Sub-Continent, and yet is known only to the scientific community.

The Great Arc Festival is a 6-month event across 5 cities in the UK.

The festival celebrates the survey of the Indian Sub Continent, 200 years ago, led by Col. Lambton and George Everest - a historical achievement known as the Great Arc.

The Focus of the Festival

The Great Arc Festival is an opportunity for the scientific community, and importantly, the common man to celebrate the Spirit of Man and his eternal quest for adventure.

A collaborative effort between Science and the Performing Arts, the festival will establish India as the forerunner in providing advanced satellite technology, mapping and other derivatives, as well as re-visit India's primary role in the scientific world.

It is a quest for learning, a visual treat, a celebration of human achievement.

The festival will host the Great Arc Exhibition, with international seminars and the release of a pictorial book on the Great Arc by John Keyes, feature promotional films, documentaries and more…, along with some of leading Indian artistes in the field of the Performing Arts.
