Who does not like festivities by the sea? Since 2013, Chennai has been rather proud of the annual Covelong Point Surf, Music and Yoga Festival. The festival also has loyal fans flocking in from Bengaluru, Puducherry, Delhi... Naturally, the disappointment was huge when it had to take a break for the last two years given the pandemic. However, the phone at Surf Turf has been ringing with eager attendees calling to enquire about the next edition.
“In 2021, when we organised the surfing competition, there were enquiries about the festival as well,” says Arun Vasu, president of Surfing Federation of India, managing partner — Surf Turf, and managing director of TT Group. (The three organisations are also organisers of the event). He had to disappoint the callers, because last year’s was a competition-only event and strictly for participants. This time, he has good news: The Covelong Classic - Surf, Music and Fitness Festival is coming back on August 5, 6 and 7..
