Immerse yourself in the rich cultural tapestry of Koraput district at the Lamtaput Village Festival, to be held at Bairipada village. This vibrant celebration brings together the living traditions of the region, showcasing the powerful Gadaba tribal dance alongside the intricate artistry of Kerang weaving and the skilled craftsmanship of basketry and pottery artists.
Visitors are invited to explore a range of handmade creations, interact directly with master artists, and gain deeper insights into tribal culture and everyday life through engaging workshops and demonstrations. The festival offers a rare opportunity to experience heritage not as a spectacle, but as a living practice shaped by community, skill, and tradition.
Local flavours add to the experience, with traditional delicacies offering a taste of Koraput’s culinary heritage. Beyond the festival grounds, visitors can explore the breathtaking Duduma Waterfall and experience the vibrant Onkadelli Haat, the weekly market held every Thursday, where local trade, culture, and social life converge.
Set against a landscape of natural beauty and cultural depth, the Lamtaput Village Festival promises an unforgettable journey into the heart of Koraput—where tradition, creativity, and community come alive.
Join us from 19–21 December 2025 and discover the heartbeat of Koraput.
