Arambol, North Goa – NamahStay has announced a new season-long programme of weekly pub crawls, traveller gatherings, drum circles, table tennis tournaments and community events for its upcoming 10th season in Arambol, Goa.

Created for backpackers, solo travellers, international visitors and Goa residents, the weekly programme will provide regular opportunities for people to meet, explore Arambol and become part of the NamahStay community.

NamahStay has always been more than a conventional backpacker hostel. It is a traveller-led commune where music, art, free living and shared experiences bring together people from different countries, cultures and creative backgrounds. The new programme will extend this community spirit throughout the upcoming Goa season.

Weekly pub crawls will introduce participants to selected bars, music venues and social spaces in and around Arambol. The guided gatherings are intended to make nightlife more accessible for solo travellers and first-time visitors who want to discover the area as part of a friendly group.

The programme will also include regular traveller meet-ups where guests and visitors can exchange stories, share local recommendations and make plans to explore Goa together. These gatherings will be hosted through NamahStay’s bar, chill garden and community spaces.

Drum circles will bring another dimension to the season, creating open and inclusive evenings centred around rhythm, movement and collective participation. Experienced musicians, beginners and curious travellers will be encouraged to join, listen and contribute to the shared experience.

For guests looking for friendly competition, NamahStay will organise table tennis tournaments throughout the season. The tournaments will welcome players of different skill levels and provide a relaxed way for travellers, hostel guests and local community members to connect.

“Many people arrive in Goa alone, but they do not have to experience it alone,” said a NamahStay representative. “Our weekly gatherings are about helping travellers meet one another, discover Arambol and create the spontaneous friendships that make backpacking memorable.”

The activities will complement NamahStay’s existing calendar of live gigs, open-mic evenings, performances and creative community events. Together, they will create a varied weekly schedule where visitors can participate according to their interests.

NamahStay’s social programme is especially suited to solo backpackers and first-time Goa visitors looking for a welcoming community. Participation details, meeting points, schedules and event announcements will be published throughout the season.

Visitors can follow NamahStay Hostel on Instagram for weekly schedules, pub-crawl registrations, tournament announcements, live-music updates and upcoming community gatherings.

Come to Goa for the beaches. Join NamahStay for the people, music, games and experiences that turn a holiday into a story worth remembering.
