Vallanghi Nenmara Vela


Vallanghi Nenmara Vela is held in the Nellikulangara Bhagavathy Temple, and runs from 3-16 April each year. It involves friendly rivalry between the villages of Nemmara and Vallangi, as they try to outcompete each other in artistic ceremonies such as Kummattikali, Karivela and a parade of caparisoned elephants.[1] The most popular part of the festival is the fireworks display the at the end, which typically lasts for one hour and is witnessed by thousands of people.[citation needed]
