Fair & Festival celebrate in Bikaner

Kolayat Fair

The Kolayat Fair has religious as well as entertainment significance. An eagerly-anticipated event, it is celebrated with pomp and gaiety. The scale of the festival is immense and tourists get a chance to see Rajasthani culture up close. The festival is also called the ‘Kapil Muni Fair’ and is held during the month of November (Kartik Poornima). For devotees, it is an auspicious time to take a holy dip in the Kolayat Lake as it is believed that a dip here can cleanse them of their sins.

Bikaner Camel Festival

Bikaner Camel Festival is an annual festival dedicated to the ship of the desert. The celebrations include camel races, camel milking, best breed competition, camel acrobatics and camel beauty pageants. Along with these, there’s plenty of scope for eating, souvenir-shopping and photography at the festival. Other sights to watch out for include the skirt-swirling folk dancers, fire dancers and the spectacular fireworks show that lights up the night sky above the fortified Desert City.
