Programme Archive
Hornbill Festival Programme Archive
A permanent, year-by-year archive of official Hornbill Festival programmes. Each edition is preserved exactly as published by the Government of Nagaland, so travellers, writers and researchers can see what actually happened — and when. Planning a future visit is handled separately, in our visitor planning guides.

Awaiting release
Hornbill Festival 2026
The official 2026 programme will be archived here once the Government of Nagaland publishes it. Until then, see the 2026 visitor planning guide.
Official Programme vs Planning Guide
These are two different things, and we keep them strictly apart:
- Programme archive (this section) — verbatim official schedules that have already been published. Nothing is added, simplified or reordered.
- Planning guides — our own visitor guidance for an upcoming edition: Hornbill Festival 2026, festival dates, costs and packages. These describe what a typical festival day looks like; they are not official timings.
Event Guides
Recurring festival events, each with its own guide — what it is, why it matters, where it happens and which programme days it appeared on.
Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I find the official Hornbill Festival programme?
The Government of Nagaland releases the official programme ahead of each edition. We archive each released programme here — the 2025 programme is preserved in full at /programme/2025.
Has the Hornbill Festival 2026 programme been announced?
Not yet. The official 2026 programme will be published at /programme/2026 as soon as it is released by the Government of Nagaland. Until then, use our 2026 visitor planning guide, which is a planning aid and not an official schedule.
Are older programmes kept online?
Yes. Every edition we archive stays permanently online at its own URL, so travellers and researchers can compare programmes year on year.
