Maramfest is an annual music and cultural festival held in Manipur, founded by John Hingkung. It usually takes place in December/January. The festival is owned and managed by Sevendiary.com.[1] In 2012, the line-up included two British Metal bands Bloodshot Dawn and Xerath headlining the festival.
The first Maramfest was held on 16 January 2009 at Helipad Ground, Maram Centre.[2] The line-up settled into a pattern of progressive rock, country and hard rock. Renowned local acts like Jiangam, Scarf, Psiikouna, Young Maraluiths and Over the Bridge performed in front of thousands of home fans.
