Every year Delhi Tourism organizes an opulent Teej Utsav to celebrate 'the monsoon festival of Teej'. Teej is a festival dedicated to Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati seeking blessings for marital bliss. Ladies dress up to nines on this day and swing with their friends singing the monsoon tunes. This year too Dilli Haat Janakpuri in association with Rajasthan Tourism will hold a grand Teej Utsav from 5-7 August 2016.
Dilli Haat's Teej Utsav is certainly a not-to-be-missed event for it transcends you into the colorful world of arts and handicrafts. The evening cultural programs will have Rajasthani folk artists as well as people from Sahitya Kala Parishad performing. Teej Utsav will have camel rides and swings - the trademark of this festival.
Teej Festival Highlights
Competitions
Food Stalls
Food stalls offering delectable food from different parts of India will tingle your taste buds and Rajasthani food would be the focus of the event.
Photography
Teej Utsav is a perfect opportunity for clicking the colorful India at one place. The handicrafts hanging on the stalls, delicious food from across India, swings for Teej celebration all make for interesting frames for the camera people. So capture in your camera, the cultural programs at Teej Utsav, the puppet show and camel ride too.
Shopping
Dilli Haat with its handicrafts from all over the country has always attracted many visitors - locals, Indians and foreigners. The colorful artistic pieces in terracotta, brass, sea shells and a variety of things up for sale are collector's items. The place offers immense opportunity to shop for handicrafts and handloom items. Colorful knickknacks, blingy jewelery, baubels and handmade toys and stationery articles are the pieces you would love to pick from here. Don't miss those spices and pickle stalls for a variety that is mind blowing!
Kid-Friendly Event
A dedicated Kids Zone with Joy rides and Adventure activities would make the kids happier at this festival. Besides there would be a colorful puppet show, swings and rides that would keep them engaged the whole time in a fun way.
