Notes from the last check

The organizer's site (Jallore Productions) and the city page both describe an annual December Fanal with free admission, but the organizer's dated content covers the 2024 edition and no current or upcoming 2025 or 2026 edition is verified.

Dates, prices and details change. This information is gathered and checked automatically and may contain mistakes. Always confirm with the official website before you book travel.
