Held In the Month Of March-April it is a festival to welcome the spring season. There is song, dance, processions,devotional music and fireworks where almost everybody participates

Though it coincides with the Gangaur Festival in Udaipur, yet it has a charm of its own. The festival holds a very prominent place among the women of Rajasthan. They dress up in traditional clothes and perform various religious activities.

They gather to dress the images of Isar and Gangaur and then carry them in a ceremonial procession through different parts of the city. The procession winds its way to the Gangaur Ghat where images are transferred to special boats amidst singing and festivity.

Once the religious part is over, it is time for cultural events where Rajasthani culture is portrayed through dance, culture and other programs. The festivity ends with a display of fireworks.
