The celebrations of Dasara will commence with a Ramayana Costume Contest.

Sri Rama Taraka Yajna is performed by offering oblations into the sacrificial fire while chanting Sri Rama Ashtottara Shata Nama, 108 holy names of Lord Rama.

There will be a devotional concert by Sri Vijay Prakash who is currently one of the judges for the Kannada reality show Sa Re Ga Ma Pa.

His Grace Madhu Pandit Dasa, President, ISKCON Bangalore will deliver an inspirational talk.

The celebrations culminate with the spectacular event of setting ablaze 50 feet tall effigies of Ravana and Kumbhakarna to symbolize the victory of Lord Ramachandra over Ravana. Eco-friendly fireworks are used to burn the effigies so as to prevent environmental pollution.
