- Be a part of desert color and passion as you tour the
camel festival in Bikaner with Indian Horizons. The camel
festival in Bikaner is a lot more than a mere annual cultural
extravaganza, it is a tribute to the 'ship of the desert'
that is so integral to desert life.
- Delight in cultural competitions for the best adorned
camel, the best camel haircut, camel milking, camel races
and other camel games. See fire dancers at their enthusiastic
best and take sheer delight in the panoramic vista of
bright fireworks that light up dusky skies over the vast
desert.
- The camel festival brightens up the rustic camel country
in January every year and creates the perfect platform
for the people of Bikaner to show off their cultural customs,
fantastic folk dances, folk music and enchanting rituals.
- The 2-day camel festival mesmerizes you into a delightful
world of merry-go-rounds, caparisoned camels, jugglers,
puppeteers, snake charmers, fortunetellers, fireworks
and undying desert appeal.
- Day one of the camel festival begins with a procession
of bedecked camels in all their fineries. The colorful
camel pageant is followed by camel dance performances.
Fireworks light up the sky at dusk. Day two of the camel
festival sees an array of camel race events and other
cultural performances.
- On both the days you get ample opportunity to sink your
teeth into camel milk sweetmeats and camel milk tea apart
from a range of local dishes that are served at the stalls
put up at the camel festival venue.
