2nd Landour
Literature & Arts Festival

 

This year’s festival is dedicated to the memory of late Hugh and Colleen Gantzer, Mussoorie residents and the husband-and-wife co-writing team who redefined travel journalism in India. Known as 'Mussoorie's Global Ambassadors', the Gantzers produced dozens of books, documentaries, and thousands of articles. The couple were awarded the Padma Shri Award in 2025.  Colleen passed away in late 2024 and Hugh, at age 94, in February 2026.
