The Pushkar Camel Fair is an annual, multi-day livestock fair and cultural celebration in Pushkar, Rajasthan, one of India’s largest gatherings for camels, horses, and cattle. It begins in the Hindu month of Kartik and concludes around Kartik Purnima, usually in late October or early November. Visitors can see livestock trading, camel races, dances, team tug-of-war, and lively competitions, while pilgrims gather at sacred Pushkar Lake for bathing and worship. The fair blends commerce, local traditions, and Hindu pilgrimage in a colourful desert-town setting.
