Planning your travel to Tiruppur:

By Train:

  • Train ticket reservations open 90 days ahead of the travel date. Train tickets to Tiruppur for the celebration tend to get sold out within a few days of opening – so, plan your travel and book your tickets at the earliest.
  • Overseas delegates may kindly note that train tickets within India can be booked online at https://www.irctc.co.in. Payment can be made online with international credit cards as well.
  • It has been observed in the past that the Tiruppur station gets crowded on the 25th of July. As an alternative, additional drop-off services are being organized to the Coimbatore train station on the 25th of July. Abhyasis interested in this option are requested to book their return tickets from Coimbatore. Booking your travel from the venue to the Coimbatore station can be done at the venue on 23rd and 24th of July.
