Porvorim Rising has announced the seventh edition of NoMoZo, scheduled to take place on January 11, 2026, once again transforming Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Marg into a vibrant, people-centric public space. Over the years, NoMoZo has grown into one of Goa’s most anticipated community-driven festivals, bringing together residents, artists, innovators, families, and local businesses in a celebration of fitness, culture, heritage, innovation, and togetherness.

Despite ongoing development activities in Porvorim, the organisers have ensured that the scale, accessibility, and spirit of NoMoZo remain unchanged. Speaking on the occasion, Goa’s Minister for Tourism, IT, E&C, and Printing and Stationery, Rohan Khaunte, highlighted NoMoZo’s evolution as a people’s festival that encourages inclusive public spaces, community bonding, and healthy lifestyles, while promising an even more engaging experience in its seventh edition.

This year’s NoMoZo will feature an extensive range of interactive zones including Kids, Art, Astronomy, Heritage, Performance and Dance, Martial Arts, Health, Youth, IT and Science, Fitness, Boxing, Influencer, and a newly introduced Karaoke Zone aimed at encouraging participation and self-expression. Organisers emphasised innovation, learning, and community engagement as core pillars of the event, with each zone designed to offer something new and interactive for attendees of all ages.

Remaining true to its community-first ethos, NoMoZo 7.0 will continue to support local artisans, creators, and vendors by providing free stalls, while the Heritage Zone will showcase Goa’s cultural roots through folk performances, indigenous art, crafts, and handmade products. The IT and Science Zone will once again spotlight Goan innovation with live demonstrations such as drone technology and 3D printing. With sports, live boxing, health initiatives, cultural showcases, technology exhibits, and entertainment packed into a single day, NoMoZo 7.0 promises to be a vibrant celebration of community spirit and collective creativity in Porvorim.
