Fests of VIT!


VIT, as we all know, is an internationally recognised university. It has many students of different nationalities. Due to the efforts of the administrators of VIT, who frequently make national as well as international trips, VIT has been able to achieve its recognition worldwide. Each year, VIT organises two college fests, namely GRAVITAS  and RIVIERA. Gravitas is the technical fest while Riviera is the cultural fest. Riviera is an international inter college event and invites many colleges from abroad. It hosts many fun events throughout the 3 days that the fest is held. The events are mostly based on singing, dancing, painting, art and other co-curricular activities. It hosts shows in the evening, where many well-known artists are invited to perform each year. Riviera 2012 hosted shows of Shreya Ghoshal, Neeraj Shreedhar ,Natalie Diluccio, well known Tamil artist Suchitra and the famous German Metal band, Suidakra. It organised a DJ night for the students on the last night of Riviera where the music was played by the well-known DJ Marina. Various food stalls are put, serving different cuisines.   The most amazing thing about Riviera is that the entire event is managed by the students of VIT. Each year, Riviera becomes a bigger hit than the one held the year before. All in all, Riviera is always a lot of fun and activities, and when we tell our acquaintances about the standards that VIT maintains for these fests, one can surely notice the awe and envy at the same time! ;)
