Re-Route: Little India 2022 invited visitors to rediscover the hidden corners and everyday stories of Little India. Through curated routes, immersive installations and on-the-ground experiences, the festival revealed the rich character of its streets, businesses and communities. These are places that are often passed by without notice.

 

The festival encouraged people to step off familiar paths and experience the district through fresh eyes. It celebrated Little India’s layered history and vibrant culture through unexpected encounters.

The festival invited visitors to go beyond the usual tourist routes and explore the lesser-known streets of Little India through curated installations and activities. Each route was designed for different types of explorers, from families, to those who enjoy spontaneous discoveries.

 

By encouraging people to slow down and engage with these hidden corners, the festival highlighted Little India’s historical significance and strengthened its ties to the community.

To help visitors discover Little India more deeply, we offered a mix of guided activities and self-led exploration. Food tours and workshops were available for those who preferred structured experiences, while participatory installations and themed merchandise encouraged personal discovery and hands-on engagement.

 

Over three weekends, the festival welcomed more than 21,000 visitors, fostering new connections with Little India’s rich heritage and culture.
