Living in Goa? How to Join the YouFinder Festival for a Day
You do not need to turn YouFinder Festival into a holiday booking if Goa is already home. The Goa-resident pass is ₹500 per day, with access on both 5 and 6 December 2026 available for ₹1,000. You can choose the day that fits your weekend and arrange your own journey to 360 Agonda.

Choose the day by the programme
Saturday, 5 December, is the full Festival day. It is the day to consider if you want more time to explore the programme and settle into the gathering. Sunday, 6 December, is a closing morning, with the Festival ending at noon. Check the latest schedule before choosing; the two days offer different amounts of time.
Arrival on 4 December is part of the stay guests’ weekend. Do not assume a resident day pass includes that arrival gathering. If you would like a different arrangement, ask us what is available.
Confirm the resident booking details
Before paying, ask the team how Goa residency is verified and what to bring on the day. We do not want you guessing at a document requirement that may change. Confirm your chosen date, the name on the booking and the final amount in the same conversation.
A resident pass is not an accommodation package. Meals and any other additions should be checked separately. If you would prefer to stay overnight, compare the current stay options rather than adding a room assumption to the ₹500 day rate.
Make the journey part of the plan
The venue is 360 Agonda in South Goa. Ask for the exact entry pin, parking or drop-off instructions and the time you should arrive. Plan the return too, particularly if you are joining evening sessions on Saturday. Having that sorted makes it easier to be present once you arrive.
If steps, walking distances, food requirements or another practical detail could affect your day, tell the team before booking. A conversation about the actual venue is more useful than trying to judge it from a photograph.
You can come on your own
There is no requirement to bring a group. Pick an experience that interests you and give yourself time to settle. You may enjoy a conversation, make something or simply spend part of the day listening. You do not owe anyone an outgoing version of yourself.
