According
to the Hindu calendar, Pushkar Fair commences in Nawami (Ninth Moon) and
ends in Purnima (Full Moon) in the month of Kartika, which can be in October or November depending on the
Moon calendar.
Here one of the biggest Cattle
Fair is held for trading purposes, and the best cattles in all categories
are awarded. Countless people in their colourful attire gather to take
a dip in the Holy Lake and pray to the deities. The whole town comes alive
with vibrant folk music and dances, magic shows, horse and camel races
and various other traditional entertainment competitions.
