Hyderabad is all set to host its biggest-ever art celebration — HYD.ART 2025 — a three-day cultural extravaganza scheduled for 19–21 December 2025 at EON Hyderabad by Navanaami Group, Nanakramguda. Organised by Hasan (Founder) and curated by renowned curator Annapurna Madipadiga, the festival aims to fill the long-felt gap for a world-class art event in the city, comparable to those in Mumbai, Delhi and Bangalore. 

Presented in partnership with Navanaami Group, HYD.ART 2025 will bring national and international exposure to local talent while showcasing masterpieces from across India.The showcase will feature over 200 artists and galleries, including rare works by Indian masters M.F. Husain, S.H. Raza and others in a dedicated “Masters of India” gallery. 

A special section, Keerthanam – A Tribute to Telugu Legends, will honor revered yesteryear Telugu artists, alongside a focused presentation of 35 leading and emerging Hyderabad artists and 30 contemporary names from the city. Highlights include a multi-generational curation of Mithila art tracing its evolution, documentaries on vanishing art forms, and a book release of 150 Mahatma Gandhi drawings by cartoonist Shankar Pamarthy. 

Visitors can participate in four workshops (Mithila painting, gouache cityscape, woodcut printing, fabric & mixed media), artist demonstrations, and panel discussions on topics ranging from folk traditions and craft practices to art investment and conservation.
