“Building a Digital Gateway for Nashik–Trimbakeshwar Simhastha Kumbh 2027”
Context & Background
Kumbh Connect was conceived as an independent digital information and planning platform to help pilgrims prepare for and navigate the Nashik–Trimbakeshwar Simhastha Kumbh 2027.
The Nashik–Trimbakeshwar Simhastha Kumbh creates a complex information environment involving bathing dates, routes, accommodation, sectors, ghats, facilities, safety information, announcements and sacred places.
Kumbh Connect was conceived as a digital gateway to consolidate this information into a structured pilgrim-oriented planning experience.
Key Challenges
1A pilgrim may need answers about bathing dates, routes, sectors, accommodation, ghats, parking, facilities, sacred places and safety information.
2Information can be distributed across multiple sources and becomes particularly difficult to navigate as the event approaches. The challenge was to create one accessible digital planning and information layer for the pilgrim journey.
Work Executed
Inspire Apps developed the Kumbh Connect digital portal as an integrated information and planning platform.
Kumbh Information — Schedules, announcements and essential event information.
Pilgrim Guide — Travel, safety, routes, parking and sector guidance.
Interactive Maps — Digital visualization of sectors and important locations.
Accommodation & Facilities — Information on camps, ashrams and pilgrim facilities.
Sacred Places — Structured information for temples, ghats and ashrams.
Updates & Alerts — A digital channel for announcements and important information.
Pilgrim Services — A consolidated interface for relevant services and guidance.
