Many attendees wear white, orange, saffron and green clothing, with some men in white kurtas with orange shoulder cloths. At the front, a seated figure in orange-red robes sits on an ornate gold throne beside a tall gold ceremonial staff and gold objects, with a large screen behind showing a colourful deity image. Hanging orange and multicoloured decorative flags line the top of the tent. a person cues are not clearly enough visible to confirm identity given the distance and small figure, so the seated figure is described by role as a seated presenter on a throne.
