Where tradition comes together with trade, where royalty comes together with heritage and where one of the oldest horse fairs in India becomes the largest celebration of horses, this is the Chetak Festival Sarangkheda.
Chetak Festival Sarangkheda has been one of the oldest horse fairs in the country having been organised for around 300 years. This Festival is the transformed version of Sarangkheda Horse fair- an age- old rural fair of horses occurs every year at the picturesque rural hinterlands of Northern Maharashtra.
A month-long celebration, the festival occurs in a designated site of more than 50 acres on the banks of Tapi River in Maharashtra’s Sarangkheda village in Shahada Taluka of Nandurbar district .
As one of oldest and largest horse fairs in India, this event is an amalgam of trade & traditions, royalty & heritage, agriculture, rural sports, entertainment, fun etc.
A 300 year-old-legacy is now purely Celebration of Heritage & Festival of Horses.
