Cochin Celebration and Carnival will be held 23 Dec 2021 to 01 Jan 2022 in Kochi ( Cochin), India. Cochin Celebration and Carnival is a merry making feast observed to welcome New year during the last week of December every year at Fort Kochi. The origin is traced to Portuguese New Year revelry here during the colonial days. The highlight of the carnival is the massive procession on the New Year’s Day. There are the sounds of Panchavadyam and music throughout the city. Embellished elephants lead the procession. Not just that, the entire Fort Kochi is decked in white festooned like a bride.There are many art forms along the carnival route which starts from the Veli Ground and concludes at the Parade Ground. Musicians, folk dancers and various artists gather here from across the country for the music, dance concerts and plays. Various contests such as cycling, swimming, tug of war, etc are also conducted during the days of the carnival. Cochin Carnival is a visual delight. People dressed in brightly colored clothes against the white paper buntings adorning the whole city is a sight to behold. This spectacular event is promoted by the district tourism promotion council and every year large number of tourists gather here to watch the carnival. Cochin Celebration and Carnival is an event and I like events...
