പാർക്കാടി പൂരം 2026 പാർക്കാടി ഭഗവതി ക്ഷേത്രം തൃശ്ശൂർ | Parkkadi Pooram 2026 Parkkadi Bhagavathy Temple Thrissur
Parkkadi Pooram at the Parkkadi Bhagavathy Temple in Thrissur is a festival steeped in tradition, devotion and cultural vibrancy that draws devotees and visitors from across Kerala and beyond. The temple comes alive days before the main celebration, with preparations involving meticulous decoration of the temple precincts, arrangement of ceremonial paraphernalia and coordination of ritual schedules.
As the festival approaches, the air fills with the rhythmic beats of chenda and other traditional instruments as performers rehearse for the grand percussion ensembles.
On the day of the Pooram, the temple grounds are bustling with devotees clad in traditional attire, families with children, and groups from neighboring villages who have come to take part in the auspicious occasion. Floral decorations, strings of lights and festoons enhance the aesthetic charm of the temple creating an atmosphere of joy and reverence.
A highlight of the festivities is the majestic procession of caparisoned elephants, each bedecked with vibrant nettipattams, bells and parasols. The elephants proceed in carefully choreographed formations, accompanied by the thunderous resonance of chenda melam a percussion performance that embodies the soul of Kerala’s temple culture. Alongside this, panchavadyam and other rhythmic art forms add layers of sonic richness to the celebrations. Devotees actively participate in special poojas and rituals, offering flowers, lamps and heartfelt prayers to the presiding deity seeking blessings for prosperity, health and spiritual upliftment.
