As usual, all are welcome, regardless of religious/spiritual affiliation, ethnic origin, race, nationality, language or any other temporary bodily designation in this lifetime. Don't let the crowds deter you from coming, it is still nothing compared to the Jagannatha Puri Rathyatra festival in India. Bring the whole family, there will be a lot of other events going on at the national mall area, and the fireworks are also very nice.

Program includes Rathyatra parade, Free Vegetarian Feast, Indian restaurant, Live Music, Yoga, Dance, Drama, Exibits, completely ecstatic kirtans (spiritual music), Q&A tent and much more.
