Night-time outdoor festival procession with a dense crowd of people in white clothing moving along a path lit by coloured lights in pink, blue and purple. Several black and dark umbrellas are held up over the crowd and above a glowing illuminated chariot or ratha with a pink-lit structure and a decorated palanquin-like canopy. Fireworks burst in the dark sky above, with smoke haze drifting through the lights. Cars are parked on the right beside trees lit in blue. A large stage with bright lights stands at the far left. The people are too distant and blurred for individual identification.
