The Darbar Festival is an Indian classical music festival that takes place annually on a weekend in London. It brings together musicians from the north Indian Hindustani and south Indian Carnatic classical traditions.

The festival has renowned artists like Kaushiki Chakraborty, Ronu Majumdar, Pandit Jasraj, Pandit Venkatesh Kumar, Pandit Ulhas Kashalkar, Kala Ramnath, Vidushi Prabha Atre, Aruna Sairam. Sudha Ragunathan, etc.

The Darbar Festival started in 2005 as a tribute to the energy, dedication and enthusiasm that Bhai Gurmit Singh Virdee (1937–2005) put into his Sikh faith and following his passions of photography, music and tabla.
