The following is an '''incomplete list of Indian classical music festivals,''' which encapsulates [[music festivals]] focused on [[Indian classical music]]. The origins of Indian classical music can be found in the [[Vedas]], which are the oldest [[scripture]]s in the [[Hindu]] tradition dating back to 1500 BC. Indian classical music has also been significantly influenced by, or syncretised with, Indian [[folk music]]. There are two divisions in Indian classical music. [[Hindustani music]] is mainly found in [[North India]].<ref>George E. Ruckert, ''Music in North India: Experiencing Music, Expressing Culture'', [[Oxford University Press]].</ref> Carnatic music, from [[South India]], tends to be more rhythmically intensive and structured than Hindustani music.<ref>Ludwig Pesch, The Oxford Illustrated Companion to South Indian Classical Music, [[Oxford University Press]].</ref> While some festivals such as the Carnatic event [[Tyagaraja Aradhana]] (founded in the 1840s) continue to focus on traditional Carnatic classical music, an emergent trend of the past few decades has been that of [[fusion music]], where genres such as [[khyal]] and western music are intermixed to appeal to a wider audience.<ref>{{cite book|last=Kumar|first=Raj|title=Essays on Indian Music|year=2003|publisher=Discovery Publishing House|pages=16|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=wwwX6DWfn3gC&dq=indian+fusion+music&pg=PA16|isbn=9788171417193}}</ref>
