NAGAUR & DESERT FESTIVAL
DELHI + AGRA + JAIPUR + BIKANER + JAISALMER + LUNI + UDAIPUR + MUMBAI
Rajasthan has one of the most colorful and vibrant deserts in the world. The great Thar Desert
has much to offer through a plethora of celebrations. Festivals and fairs, music and dance, are a
part of life in the State as well as in the desert. The yearlong festive fervour and cattle marts turn
into delightful fairs. Festivals hold an unusual lure for the Rajasthanis and they have any
number of reasons to celebrate.
The Nagaur Festival is held every year in the period between January-February in the quaint
Rajput town of Nagaur. The Nagaur festival is essentially a cattle fair and every year close to
75,000 camels, bullocks and horses are traded. In fact the sheer volume of trading is astonishing
to the first time visitors.
