Lucknowites, the time to make merry is here! Put on your festive caps, head out and greet everyone with a smile because Dussehra is a festival of spreading joy!

Joy to the world!

Be it Diwali, Holi, Eid or Christmas, we know how to celebrate. With Dussehra upon us, here are some of the places you can visit to get the best of the festivities in town!

Aishbagh

This is the biggest Dussehra celebration in town and packs in a whole lot of music, dance and food. The Ramlila here is absolutely stunning to look at and captivates you in the story. Here, the Ravana effigy is 121 feet tall, and absolutely remarkable!

Sadar Bazaar

The ever crowded lanes of Sadar Bazaar turn colourful and joyful as Dussehra comes around. Here, a massive Ravana effigy is burnt and people from all nearby areas come to pay a visit to see the festivities!

PNT Park Rajajipuram

Here, in Rajajipuram, the spirit of the festivity is always present but during Dussehra, it is taken to the next level. The burning of a 40 foot Ravana is symbolic of more than just a victory of good over evil.

Jhulelal Ghat

At the serene, riverbank Ghat, the views of the burning Ravana are mesmerizing. This time, a 50 foot Ravana will be put in its place here and against the festive backdrop of Lucknow, that's a sight you don't want to miss.

You can find people burning other Ravana effigies all around town, so even if you're not able to make it to the biggest celebrations, you can still be a part of the festivities!
