Sri Vitappa Fair

Sri Vitappa Fair

Sri Vitappa Fair, Sri Vitappa Fair travel, Sri Vitappa Fair of Karnataka, Fair and Festival of Karnataka, KarnatakaSri Vithappa fair is held in honour of Vithappa deity of the village. It is observed for three days immediately after Shigi Hunnive. About 7 to 8 thousand people gather at the time. The deity is taken out in a palanquin in a parade accompanied by about 60 parties of drummers from different parts of the state. The devotees offer sheep to the deity. The Pujari sells them and the amount realized is credited to the temple funds. Devotees bring pure milk and they consider it a good omen if it gets converted into curds before offering it to the deity. Another feature of this fair is that a person from Chunchanoor village picks out some grains in his palm from a number of bags kept in the temple. The grain he picks out is then to be the harvest which will have wealthy yield that year.
