Essentially an animal fair, it provides an opportunity to participate in some of the local sports.
This eight days fair held every year during the month of Jan-Feb, is popularly known as the Cattle Fair and is the second largest in Rajasthan. Nagaur Town is the most picturesque of Rajput townships. Nagaur is a sea of animals, trading over 70,000 bullocks, camels and horses every year. The bullocks are known for their fleetness. Not only are the animals lavishly decorated, even their owners flaunt wearing colorful turbans and long moustaches. Sports like tug-of-war, camel races, bullock races, cock fights, jugglers, puppeteers, story-tellers and exciting campfire evenings are held to entertain the tourists. Folk music of the Jodhpur variation echoes the tranquil desert sand. Nagaur is well connected to the major cities by road and rail. Nearest airport is Jodhpur, some 135kms away.
