The Christians call it feasts, the Hindus call it jatra and the Muslims call it Urus. Three names but one sentiment celebration. Goa is perpetually in a festive mood all through the year with some or the other fair in the state.

All the festivals and Jatras are celebrated with great fervour and enthusiasm by one and all. People from all walks of life, rich or poor, old or young, Hindu or Christians celebrate the festivals together making it a Goan festival. Apart from religious festivals, there are cultural festivals and carnivals organized round the year.
