Last year
Shaan and Seedhe Maut on one night
Revels ’26 opened with an inauguration on 24 February and ran its cultural fest from 25 to 28 February. The proshows: stand-up comedian Aaditya Kulshreshth on 26 February, then Bollywood playback singer Shaan and hip-hop duo Seedhe Maut on 28 February.
Getting in
Every MAHE college can take part. Students from outside MAHE are eligible only if they’re from a BTech or engineering college, so check that before you buy anything.
Last year’s passes were sold online only, with no refunds. One bundle included a General pass, a Pro Show pass and official Revels merch, and the Shaan and Seedhe Maut concert came free with a pass. Outstation participants could get accommodation. We couldn’t find last year’s pass prices published anywhere public.
Getting there
The nearest railway station is Udupi, about 5 km from Manipal, and autos cover the rest. Direct buses run from Bengaluru, Mangaluru and Mumbai to Tiger Circle in Manipal or the Udupi bus stand.
