Minister Subhash Phal Dessai announced that the International Purple Fest Goa 2025 will take place from October 9 to 12, with an inclusive stage set to welcome attendees. In a major accessibility push, a specially designed boardwalk was inaugurated at Miramar Beach, ensuring seamless beach access for Persons with Disabilities (PwDs). The initiative, developed by GTDC, marks a significant step toward inclusive tourism and infrastructure in Goa.
The Goa Coastal Zone Management Authority has approved the two-week Goa Sand Art Festival at Miramar Beach, featuring sand sculptures, student workshops, and local artist engagement, balancing cultural vibrancy with environmental responsibility.
To mark Friendship Day, Majo Amig, a vibrant citizens' group of both youth and senior citizens, organized a Friendship Walk from Parashuram Bhumi, Campal–Panaji to Miramar Beach and back. The walk fostered connection, health, and intergenerational bonding in the spirit of friendship and community.
