Pride Hotels Group marks World Tourism Day 2024 with its ongoing “India Dekho with Pride” initiative, which has, over the past year, invited travelers to experience India’s rich cultural festivals. Launched on World Tourism Day 2023, this campaign has guided guests through India’s most significant festivals, providing a unique blend of luxury accommodation and authentic cultural experiences across the group's properties.

“Through our ‘India Dekho with Pride’ initiative, we have brought travelers closer to the heart of India’s festivals, offering them an authentic experience of the country’s diverse traditions while enjoying the luxury of our hospitality. With World Tourism Day 2024 upon us, we look back at a year filled with cultural celebrations and look forward to continuing this mission in the future,”

The year began with Makar Sankranti at Pride Hotel Bhopal, where guests enjoyed kite flying and traditional treats. In March, Pride Hotel Pune hosted visitors for Holi, featuring vibrant celebrations and relaxing accommodations.
