Hi Dinesh, First, thanks for sharing this info.
I came to know some Kambla events run all/late night, by any chance would you know which one of the events are held this way? Also would you have any contacts of the organizing committee through which i could get more information?
Hey Tarun, thanks for reading it , glad it is helpful
most of them run whole night on Saturdays. Puttur Kambala is next biggest which I am visiting most probabaly, let me know what else you need
Hi Dinesh,
You mentioned Puttur Kambala event to be on 4th March , kambala committee sent out the date as 3rd March 2012. Do you have any means to confirm this? If so, please do so. Are the above schedule if for 2011 or 2012? 🙂
