Dear All,

It is to inform that more than 3500 passes have been sent via courier to the registered participants. If you have missed the chance of online registration here is another chance. 'On-the-spot' registration is now open. You have to register at the venue before the desired show.

PS: If any one have registered online but didnt get the passes delivered, they can also collect it at the venue.

Best Regards
Debadityo
