Outdoor cultural performance under a large red-and-white striped tent canopy on a green mat. Around a dozen men in matching yellow sleeveless vests and blue or black trousers, several wearing black caps or headbands, dance in a circle while striking round hand drums held at their sides. Behind them, colourful umbrella-style canopies and a maroon draped backdrop frame the stage. Seated devotees in white clothes line the left side, and a few people in white stand near the right side, watching the performance.
