According to the organisers, arrangements have been made to ensure that the festival is free of drugs.
Music biggies such as Wiz Khalifa, Jason Derulo and Martin Garrix would be performing at the event, which runs till December 29.
"Everywhere on social media to websites we have made it clear that the festival is a drug-free zone. The notices are also put up at the venues to make it clear for the participants that we will not encourage any banned substance," Vishal Shah, promoter of the festival told PTI.

He said sniffer dogs are also stationed at the venue to ensure that the banned substances are not brought in while police officers at the main gate would be involved in stringent frisking.
The festival, which calls itself as multi-genre event has three stages, including the 3D stage where the headliners will be performing.
