pushkar fair
Held each November at the time of the Kartik Purnima full moon, Pushkar Camel Fair is one of India’s most highly-rated travel experiences, a spectacle on an epic scale, attracting thousands of camels, horses and cattle and visited by over 400,000 people over a period of around fourteen days.
For visitors it’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to witness the colour, spectacle and carnival of one of the last great traditional melas, which brings livestock, farmers, traders and villagers from all over Rajasthan. We believe that every aspect of such an experience should be special.
Welcome to Camp Bliss – our luxury tented camp at Pushkar Camel Fair –
a stylish and welcoming retreat and a magical way to experience this
extraordinary event.
In February 2019 you can also join us for an exceptional experience of Nagaur Cattle Fair, another of the great regional trading fairs, with even more camels than Pushkar and a deeply traditional feel.
