The Bharani festival at the Kodungallur Bhagavathi temple in Thrissur district is one of the grandest in Kerala. It falls in the Malayalam month of Meenam (March / April).
The festival is noted for the largest congregation of Velichappadus (‘revealers of light’) or Oracles who reach here from different parts of the state to take part in the festival.
One day before the final Bharani, the Chandanapodi Chartal or the smearing of the idol with sandal paste is carried out.
