The festival, scheduled from December 1 to 10, 2025, celebrates Naga culture, tradition, food, music, and unity, while also hosting business networking sessions and workshops. Last year, international partners included Wales, the US, Japan, and Peru, alongside Sikkim and Telangana as state partners.

The 2025 edition is expected to surpass previous attendance, building on last year’s 33.7% rise in footfall, with 2,05,968 visitors, including 2,375 foreign tourists and over 56,000 domestic visitors, generating ₹100 crore in revenue from a ₹6.5 crore investment. Local participation also increased to 1,47,224 attendees, reflecting strong community engagement.

To facilitate travel, Air India Express has been announced as the official travel partner, enhancing connectivity for domestic and international visitors. “This partnership will strengthen connectivity & create opportunities for tourism, cultural exchange & economic growth in the #LandOfFestivals,” Rio posted.

The Hornbill Festival provides a platform for local artisans, musicians, and entrepreneurs, promoting handloom, handicrafts, and indigenous cuisine. With its international delegations, corporate support, and growing tourist turnout, the Hornbill Festival 2025 is set to further strengthen Nagaland’s position as a premier cultural tourism destination in India.
