Elation, Excitement and Enigma is what COMFEST is all about. An event that started more than a decade ago, has now turned out be a mammoth affair, a techno- cultural event which is embedded like a precious jewel in the heart of every Jaipurian. The most special and distinct feature of this fest is that it is an exclusively student oriented event. Students are so passionate about this event, that they start planning for it months in advance.
More than fifty prestigious schools from all over the country and abroad, come to Comfest to prove their mettle. This grand event is the brainchild of The Jaipuria Computer Club or as we call it the JCC. With over 750 students coming to Comfest, it surely has etched its name among India’s best events organized at the school level.
Comfest is known for the versatility of a plethora of events such as Junk’s the Punk; a treasure hunt with a new and exciting theme every year, Codex; an event where all the computer geeks come to see whose knowledge is more than the others, Capture the Moment; an event where amateur videographers or the ones with cutting edge skills capture the beautiful and exclusive moments of Comfest on their cameras. With such quirky event names and the toughness in them, Comfest instantaneously became a favourite among the students of Kanpur and has remained so ever since.
Comfest is also famous for its keynote speakers who came from all walks of life. Hackers, Entrepreneurs, Activists and Politicians, have all been a part of Comfest as guest speakers. This year, the keynote speaker is none other than the Deputy Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh, Sri Dinesh Maurya. Day zero or as the students fondly call it the entertainment evening is the most exciting part of the fest as renowned singers are united and the musical shows put up by them are electrifying. From Aditya Narayan and his band to Amit Mishra, the national award winning singer, all have been a part of this fest and this year we added Euphoria to the list. Students from class 9th to 12th participate; not all of them as contestants but as a part of the organizing team.
Comfest time is one of festivity and excitement. As soon as Comfest gets over, it leaves a void in our hearts. Comfest beats in the hearts of every Jaipurian. Besides all the fun and frolic that we get to experience in the course of its preparation and execution, we as students get a great platform to learn a lot from the kind of grueling experience we are put into, the exposure we get and to top it all the sense of responsibility and sincerity with which each of us works, makes this event a truly enriching journey for us , the Jaipurians.
