Greater Noida West: This October, Greater Noida West is set to witness a grand cultural celebration that promises to go far beyond a conventional Ramleela. Prabhu Shri Ramleela 2026, scheduled from October 10 to October 24, 2026, is being planned as a large-scale cultural festival that brings together faith, tradition, technology, entertainment, food, and community participation.
The 15-day event is being organised by Prabhu Shri Ramleela Sewa Trust with the vision of creating a major annual cultural destination for Greater Noida West and the Delhi-NCR region. The organisers are attempting to present Ramleela in a new format where visitors will not simply watch the story of Bhagwan Shri Ram from the audience but will experience an entire cultural journey.
A grand Ram Mandir replica to become the centrepiece
One of the biggest attractions planned for the event is a 60×60-ft replica of the Shri Ram Mandir. The installation is proposed to feature a 5-6 ft chrome Ram Lala idol, supported by elaborate LED lighting and visual presentation. The structure is expected to become the spiritual centrepiece of the festival and a major attraction for visitors. Families will also get an opportunity to explore different cultural zones and experiences across the festival venue.
From Ramleela to drone finale, Tradition will meet technology
One of the most distinctive features of Prabhu Shri Ramleela 2026 will be its attempt to combine traditional storytelling with modern technology. Along with live Ramleela performances, the organisers are planning a dedicated drone arena and a drone finale. The technology-driven experience is expected to add a new visual dimension to the celebration and attract younger audiences.
The festival has been conceptualised as a complete evening destination where visitors can arrive early, explore cultural attractions, enjoy food and shopping, watch the Ramleela and stay until the final spectacle of the evening.
More than 250 curated experiences planned
According to the event plan, the festival is expected to offer more than 250 curated experiences.
The proposed attractions include:
- Traditional and cultural experiences
- Regional handicrafts and artisan products
- Handloom and textile displays
- Festive shopping
- Food experiences
- Books and literature
- Traditional toys
- Live cultural performances
- Family entertainment
- Community activities
- Immersive experiences
- Technology-driven attractions
The organisers are also proposing a plastic-free festival, adding an environmental dimension to the large-scale celebration.
The team behind the grand Ramleela
Behind the ambitious plan is a team of people with experience in social service, cultural programmes, community engagement and event organisation. The key leadership of Prabhu Shri Ramleela Sewa Trust includes Advocate Deepak Yadav as president and Dev Mishra as general secretary. Their respective backgrounds and experience form an important part of the Trust’s larger vision for Ramleela 2026.
Dev Mishra: From organising Dussehra since 2017 to leading Ramleela 2026
Dev Mishra, general secretary of Prabhu Shri Ramleela Sewa Trust, has been associated with social work and community initiatives for several years. He is the founder of FUNDreamz and is also associated with Karyavahak Foundation, through which free education is provided to underprivileged children.
A devotee of Bhagwan Shri Ram, Mishra has been organising successful Dussehra celebrations at Eros Sampoornam in Greater Noida West since 2017. His experience in organising community celebrations is now being channelled into the much larger vision of Prabhu Shri Ramleela 2026.
As the general secretary of the Trust, Dev Mishra is playing an important role in the planning and implementation of the event. He is coordinating closely with the Trust’s leadership, founding members and partner institutions to ensure that the cultural, administrative and community programmes are managed effectively.
From conceptualising the celebration to coordinating its execution, his role will be crucial in bringing the ambitious project to life.
Advocate Deepak Yadav: Leading the trust’s cultural and social vision
Advocate Deepak Yadav, president of Prabhu Shri Ramleela Sewa Trust, is a social worker, legal expert and public representative. He has been actively associated with social service, public welfare and the preservation of Sanatan culture.
As president of the Trust, Yadav is working to strengthen the spirit of service, values and organisation through religious, cultural and social activities. He is also serving as a representative associated with the Dadri Assembly constituency, where he has been working on regional development, public issues and community service.
Under his leadership, the Trust has ensured its registrations and recognition under PAN, 12A, 80G and CSR-1.
The Trust has also established partnerships with institutions across the cultural, corporate and government sectors to support the vision of organising the large-scale Prabhu Shri Ramleela 2026.
These partnerships are expected to play an important role in the planning and execution of the festival.
A festival designed for every generation
The organisers are planning the festival as a multi-generational experience. For senior citizens and older generations, it will offer an opportunity to reconnect with the traditional story and values of the Ramayana. Children and youngsters, meanwhile, are expected to engage with the event through immersive attractions, technology and large-scale visual experiences.
Parents and families will have food, shopping, cultural programmes and entertainment options within the same venue. The objective is to create a shared cultural space where people from different age groups and residential communities can come together.
The vision: A new cultural identity for Greater Noida West
Greater Noida West has witnessed rapid residential development and population growth over the years. Thousands of families now live across its high-rise societies and residential communities. Prabhu Shri Ramleela 2026 is being envisioned as an effort to create a large-scale cultural platform within the region itself.
The organisers hope that the event will bring together residents from different societies, communities and age groups and eventually develop into an annual cultural identity for Greater Noida West. At the heart of the festival will remain the values associated with Bhagwan Shri Ram: truth, righteousness, duty, sacrifice, compassion, discipline and service.
Not just a Ramleela, But a 15-day cultural experience
With a grand Ram Mandir replica, live Ramleela, drone experiences, more than 250 planned attractions, handicrafts, food and family entertainment, Prabhu Shri Ramleela 2026 is attempting to transform the traditional idea of a Dussehra celebration.
The leadership of Advocate Deepak Yadav and Dev Mishra, along with the Trust’s efforts to bring together cultural, corporate and government institutions, forms an important part of this ambitious vision. If executed as planned, the festival could emerge as one of the biggest cultural gatherings in Greater Noida West and potentially establish a new annual festive tradition for the rapidly growing region.
Prabhu Shri Ramleela 2026 is scheduled to take place from October 10 to October 24, 2026.
