This is one of my favorite local events/festivals. I have attended for the last 7 years. It has been held annually for 15 years by the India Association of Greater Tulsa (IAGT) and it is usually in late August on a Saturday at the Expo Center. Last year the timeframe was 11am to 5pm. It is a wonderful FREE family event. You can enjoy cultural displays, colorful dance performances, information booths, kid's fun activities, sports booth and camel rides. The booths include anything from nonprofits to vendors with clothing, jewelry and pottery. My favorite thing is their clothing sales. They have a wonderful collection of traditional Indian clothing at affordable prices as well as a Henna booth. The best part is the delicious food available for purchase from local area India restaurants. The food is representative of different regions of India. The event setup is easy to navigate and you can just walk around and explore all the different offerings. The performances are amazing. Kripalaya Dance Academy never disappoints. Their Bharatanatyam and Bollywood dances are not something you should miss!
