ONAM:
The harvest festival of Kerala, Onam is celebrated across religions and communities with equal enthusiasm. It was declared the national festival of Kerala in 1961. The carnival of Onam ranges from four to ten days. The first and the tenth day, Atham and Thiruonam respectively, are the most significant days. The festival is celebrated to welcome the King Mahabali who, according to the popular legend, visits his people annually on the festival of Onam.
Celebrations include Vallam Kali, a unique boat race where snake-shaped boats are oared by people for prestigious races like Aranmula Uthrattadhi Boat Race and the Nehru Trophy Boat Race. Next is the Atthachamayam a form of a parade which includes elephants marching to drum beats accompanied by colourfully dressed people in masks. It showcases the folk music and the art forms. Other important features are the Pookkalam which includes flower arrangement to create beautiful floral carpets surrounding the Onathappan statue and games like Tug of War. The traditional dance forms Pulikali, Thumbi Thullal Onam Kali and Kummattikali add to the festivities and richness of the day. However, Onam is incomplete without mentioning the Onam Sadya. The Sadya is a reflection of the season's spirit on a platter, a nine-course meal which includes the seasonal vegetables served on plantain leaves.
