Ananta Kriti Expo is a curated exhibition platform celebrating the richness, diversity and enduring relevance of India’s textiles, traditional apparel, handlooms and craft. Bringing together weavers, artisans, textile producers, garment makers, designers and contemporary Indian brands, Ananta Kriti creates a meaningful marketplace where craftsmanship meets discerning consumers and new business opportunities.
The inaugural Ananta Kriti Expo 2026, held from 1–3 November at Aga Khan Hall, New Delhi, is strategically timed just ahead of Diwali to showcase festive collections, traditional wear and craft-led products at one of the year’s most important buying occasions. More than an exhibition, Ananta Kriti seeks to create a contemporary platform for India's living traditions — helping makers and brands tell their stories, showcase their work and connect with audiences who value authenticity, craftsmanship and Indian design.
The inaugural edition brings together makers, weavers, manufacturers, designers and brands representing the diversity of Indian craftsmanship — from traditional weaves and sarees to ethnic wear, children's apparel, textiles and craft-led products. Ananta Kriti aims to create a meaningful meeting point between the people who create India's traditions and the people who wear, celebrate and carry them forward.
