An initiative to celebrate a family-friendly and liquor-free New Year event.
In the vibrant city of Coimbatore, we, Triumph Expeditions Private Limited, embarked on a remarkable journey to create a New Year celebration that would redefine the city’s festivities. With the vision of introducing a family-friendly and alcohol-free event, we set out on a path that would lead to the grand spectacle known as GO BIG! GO GALASTA! 2024.
The planning for this grand spectacle began three months prior, marked by meticulous planning and excitement. However, nature had its say as the Michaung cyclone threw a wrench in our preparations, prompting a temporary delay in unveiling our ambitious event. Undaunted, we faced the challenges head-on, adapting to the difficulties that came our way. The Corporation Commissioner’s inspection and the revitalization of the lake park introduced unforeseen twists to our story, building up the excitement around the eventual unveiling.
On the 21st of December 2023, Triumph Expeditions, in collaboration with Coimbatore Smart City Limited, hosted a press meet to officially introduce the city to the grandeur of GO BIG GO GALASTA 2024.
Safety emerged as a paramount concern. Leveraging a team of 300 volunteers, 120 vigilant fishermen safeguarding the lakeside, and a robust network of 180 bouncers, 300 private security guards, and CCTV surveillance cameras covering the entire stretch of the street carnival, as well as barricades surrounded by the lakeside, we ensured the well-being of every attendee.
The much-anticipated day finally came, graced by the presence of the Commissioner of Police, Coimbatore. The gates opened wide, and the city echoed with the rhythms of Kerala’s famous chenda melam, creating an atmosphere that would linger in memories for years to come.
Giant clowns and street walkers ushered in the attendees, paving the way for a dazzling troop performance featuring Tamil Nadu’s celebrated jamap band. Amidst the vibrant atmosphere, a colossal food street catered to diverse palates, complementing the diverse entertainment offerings.
Celebrity dance performances, mimicry acts, and electrifying dance shows added layers of joy to the celebration. The zenith of the evening was the breathtaking laser show, where LED lights synchronized with music, creating a sensory symphony that captivated the audience.
Yet, the pinnacle of our achievement was reserved for the drone show. Against the canvas of the night sky, 250 drones painted mesmerizing visuals, holding the audience in a mesmerizing 15-minute performance that made a lasting impression.
At this time we extend our heartfelt gratitude to the honorable District Collector, Commissioner of Police, Corporation Commissioner, Coimbatore City Police, Press and Media members, Radio Partner Hello FM, Event Management Partners Cat Pro Events and Pulse, and all the volunteers, bouncers, and Corporation sanitary workers. Your unwavering support and dedication played a pivotal role in making GO BIG GO GALASTA 2024 not just an event, but a triumph for the entire community. Together, we created memories that will resonate with the hearts of all who experienced this extraordinary celebration.
This achievement serves as a testament to the dedication and hard work of everyone involved, turning obstacles into opportunities and ensuring that GO BIG GO GALASTA 2024 will be remembered as a milestone in the city’s cultural and entertainment landscape.
