Outdoor festival scene at a red-surfaced ground beside a teal mesh screen and stacked stone blocks. In the foreground a large crowd of people wear red headwraps and red garments, seen from behind. Behind them, a troupe of performers in blue tunics with orange trim and pink or white turbans dances in a line with raised arms. Drummers in white dhotis with bare chests play large drums, and dancers in red and yellow outfits stand at right. A white flagpole rises at centre. The image reflects the page's record-setting gathering, though the crowd count is hard to judge from this view.
