The Nashik–Trimbakeshwar Simhastha Kumbh Mela is one of the world’s largest spiritual gatherings, held once every twelve years on the sacred banks of the River Godavari in Maharashtra. Deeply rooted in the legend of Amrit Manthan, it symbolizes faith, purity, and the eternal cycle of renewal. Home to one of the twelve Jyotirlingas, Trimbakeshwar adds immense religious significance to the region, while Nashik’s rich culture, temples, and ghats reflect its spiritual and historical depth.

Nashik Trimbakeshwar Kumbh Mela Authority in collaboration with Association of Desginers of India and MyGov invites creative minds to design a logo for Nashik–Trimbakeshwar Simhastha Kumbh Mela 2027 that captures the spirit of faith, purity, and renewal associated with this sacred event. The logo should capture the essence of Kumbh Mela and Lord Shiva. The magnificence of Ramayana sites at Nashik, the ghats of Nashik. Trimbakeshwar and eternal flow of River Godavari weaving the both cities together.

As the Kumbh Mela continues to grow as a vibrant and globally recognized spiritual celebration, the initiative aims to envision a fresh and dynamic visual identity that remains rooted in tradition while reflecting the aspirations of the 21st century. The new logo and the visual identity will build upon the legacy of past editions, capturing the timeless spirit of devotion and unity in a form that is modern, contextual, and visually engaging for diverse audiences across India and the world. Participants may draw inspiration from the culture, heritage,architecture, rituals, and natural beauty of Nashik and Trimbakeshwar. The logo should be simple, memorable, and versatile, conveying faith, celebration, and timeless tradition across all platforms. The design should serve as a distinct visual identity for Kumbh Mela 2027, symbolizing Nashik–Trimbakeshwar’s spiritualessence and India’s rich cultural heritage.
