Khajuraho dance festival
Khajuraho dance festival - 25 Feb- 2 March
This annual festival fills the amazing temples of Khajuraho with the best classical dancers in the country. Not just for tourists, it is an important cultural event that fascinates aficionados of traditional Asian performing arts. Well-known exponents in their fields perform various classical styles of Indian dance such as Kathak, Bharat Natyam, Odissi, Kuchipudi, Manipuri and Kathakali. Modern Indian dance is a recent addition. The western group of temples acts as the exquisite backdrop for the performers - usually the Chitragupta Temple dedicated to Surya (the Sun God) and the Vishwanatha Temple dedicated to Lord Shiva.
