India’s largest senior citizen sports and cultural festival returns with renewed energy
New Delhi, 25, February, 2026: Ashiana Housing Ltd. is all set to host the much-anticipated 12th edition of Jashn, its flagship senior citizen sports and cultural festival, bringing together vibrant senior residents for a grand celebration of active living and community spirit. Following the tremendous success of Jashn, India’s largest senior citizen sports and cultural festival, the upcoming edition promises to be bigger, more energetic, and even more inclusive.
Scheduled from February 26th to 28th, Jashn-12 will unfold in the lively setting of Ashiana Advik in Bhiwadi, where senior residents from Ashiana’s communities across the country, including Chennai, Pune, Lavasa, and Jaipur, will come together for three days filled with enthusiasm, talent, and meaningful connections. Building on the legacy of creating an atmosphere of joy, camaraderie, and friendly competition, the festival aims to further strengthen bonds within the senior living community.
Continuing its tradition of promoting purposeful and active ageing, Jashn-12 will feature a dynamic lineup of sports and cultural competitions. Residents will participate in engaging activities such as walking, cycling, dancing, singing and ramp walk. The festival is expected to see participation from hundreds of residents, reinforcing Ashiana’s commitment to fostering active and engaging senior living communities.
Sharing his thoughts ahead of the event, Mr. Ankur Gupta, JMD & Managing Director, Ashiana Housing Ltd., said, “Jashn has grown into a powerful platform that celebrates the confidence, talent, and zest for life among our senior residents. With the 12th edition in Bhiwadi, we look forward to welcoming participants from across our communities and creating yet another memorable experience that truly reflects the spirit of ageless living.”
A major highlight of the upcoming festival will be the grand cultural evenings and inter-community competitions, where many residents are expected to step forward as first-time performers. Echoing the sentiment from previous editions, ‘age is no limit to talent, passion, and participation’, Jashn-12 will continue to encourage seniors to explore new interests and showcase their abilities on a national platform.
As preparations gather pace, excitement is already building across Ashiana’s senior living communities. With its proven legacy and growing participation, Jashn-12 is poised to once again celebrate the vibrancy, resilience, and joyful spirit of India’s senior citizens.
