DESERT FESTIVAL
Duration: 3 Days
Festive Attractions: Camel Safari At Sam Sand Dunes
Timing: January-February.
Held in the months of January-February, the Desert Festival
exudes a delightful spirit. For three days, the otherwise barren land of
Jaisalmer comes to life and is clustered with hordes of colourfully
dressed people. 
In fact during these days, Jaisalmer gets a chance to parade its
exuberant charm to the world. Some chosen and cherished moments of the
glorious and illustrious past and affluent culture are on display. The
traditional dances backed by high pitched music take the folk dancers and
the audience on an euphoric trip. The turban-tying competition and Mr.
Desert Contest add a touch of excitement to the festive celebrations.
The famous Gair dancers and the traditional fire-dancers leave the crowds
enchanted whenever they perform. The grand finale is a trip to the sand
dunes where one can enjoy the pleasure of a camel ride and at times also
view the musicians and dancers performing on the dunes. All arrangements
are made by the Department of Tourism and RTDC.
