Kalpathy Ratholsavam

Kalpathy Ratholsavam is one of the most celebrated festivals in Palakkad district. The festival begins with a flag hoisting ceremony conducted at Sree Viswanathaswamy temple (Kundampalam).

The main attraction is the rolling of giant, elaborately-decorated Rathams or chariots. A week-long Carnatic music festival is also organised along with Kalpathy Ratholsavam.
