Jodhpur celebrates Marwar festival with bursts of joy,
music and dances during the months of September-October
every year. This two-day festival commences during the
Sharad Poornima in the Hindu month of Ashwin and glorifies
the romantic exploits of the Marwar rulers.
Marwar festival has a special significance as it celebrates
Rajasthan's rich folk music and lauds the great warrior
Rajputs who fought and adored with equal fervor, devotion
and honesty. Listen to bards sing praises of local Rajput
warriors who died for their pride and honor, watch kalbeliya
dancers swirling their black skirts glittering with
mirrors, beads and sequins in tune to mesmerizing desert
music and gorge on local delicacies served at temporary
stalls that spring up all over Jodhpur, Rajasthan, India.
The Marwar festival celebrations are held in parts
at different venues. The Mehrangarh Fort and Umaid Bhawan
Palace grounds serve as perfect venues for folk performances
and cultural extravaganzas.
