Kila Raipur Sports Festival

Did you ever hear of an Olympics in the deep core of North Indian Village? Welcome to Punjab’s unique Kila Raipur Sports Festival, which is far more than just a sporting festival. Experience an amazing range of both classic and contemporary sports here, including fierce bullock cart races, intense wrestling matches, and even impressive strength demonstrations as teeth-powered vehicle pulls! At this festival, animals’ abilities are honoured in addition to human talent.

Bullocks, dogs, and camels compete here to show off their power and endurance. This festival, which has been a part of Indian custom since 1933, is a vivid representation of the spirit and culture of rural India. The rewards come in the form of modest tokens like ghee packets or cash payments. The Rural Olympics is a once-in-a-lifetime experience that perfectly captures the colourful, multifaceted spirit of India, whether you’re there to watch or compete.
