Among the key speakers and mentors are Jamie Robinson, filmmaker, adventurer and former Isle of Man TT racer, who will share stories from his racing career and global expeditions during an interactive session titled From Isle of Man TT to Globe-Trotter. Anand Dharmaraj, engineer and motorcyclist, will lead practical bush mechanics workshops, teaching riders how to diagnose and fix common mechanical issues in remote locations. Vijay Parmar, founder of the Rally Raid-de-Himalaya and Mughal Rally, will curate the Himalayan Adventure Challenge across competitive and adventure categories. Col Kaushal Kashyap and Col Kaushalendra Singh from Monks & Warriors will host sessions focused on leadership, resilience and the Special Forces mindset.

One of the biggest highlights of Himalayan Basecamp 2026 is Ladakh Uncharted, a curated expedition programme developed in partnership with Alpinestars. Designed to take participants beyond Ladakh's popular tourist routes, the rides will traverse scenic locations including Wari La, the Leh–Zanskar Trail through Chilling and Shukpa Makha, as well as the roads connecting Likir and Tingmosgang. Led by experienced local riders, these expeditions aim to offer a deeper and more authentic exploration of the region's landscapes, villages and riding trails.

Headlining the live music performance is Anuv Jain, whose soulful acoustic songs have earned him a massive following across India. Joining him are Ankur Tewari & The Ghalat Family, known for blending Hindustani rock with contemporary songwriting. The festival will also celebrate music from local artistes.
