A large white tented hall with a red floor is decorated with rows of hanging colourful tassel streamers and paper lanterns. Many people walk through the space, many carrying umbrellas in yellow, green, red and orange with ornate fringes, and red and yellow flags on poles. Several men wear white dhotis and kurtas, and women wear white saris and salwar-style outfits. Some people in the foreground wear pink, red and blue clothing. A procession-like gathering moves under the decorated canopy, with a few people appearing to pull or follow a decorated cart in the distance. Overhead, string lights and small lamps hang among the streamers.
