Bonalu Festival
July 1 @ 5:00 pm - August 15 @ 9:00 pm
Bonalu is a traditional Hindu festival dedicated to Goddess Mahakali. Devotees, especially women, offer decorated pots (Bonam) filled with cooked rice, jaggery, milk, and neem leaves to the Goddess as a mark of gratitude and devotion. The festival features colorful processions, traditional dances, Pothuraju performances, and cultural celebrations. In Khammam District, Bonalu is celebrated with great devotion at Mahakali temples and local shrines.
