DESCRIPTION:Thirumandhamkunnu Pooram is the annual festival of the Thiruman
 dhamkunnu Bhagavathy Temple at Angadipuram in Malappuram district\, a majo
 r centre of worship dedicated to Goddess Bhadrakali\, with Lord Shiva also
  worshipped at the shrine. Held in the Malayalam month of Meenam\, general
 ly during March or April\, the Pooram traditionally lasts for 11 days and 
 has a history dating to the early decades of the 16th century\, according 
 to palm-leaf records preserved at the University of Calicut. The festival 
 is closely connected with the traditions of Valluvakonathiri\, the former 
 ruler of Valluvanad\, and remains one of the important temple celebrations
  of the Malabar region. The opening of the festival is associated with the
  Makayiram star\, when the idol of the goddess is taken from the sanctum o
 n a caparisoned elephant for the ceremonial Aarattu. This procession\, kno
 wn as Poorapurappadu\, marks the beginning of the principal celebrations\,
  with devotees gathering along the route as the deity proceeds towards the
  river. Aarattu is performed repeatedly during the festival\, with Kerala 
 Tourism recording 21 such ceremonies over the 10 principal days\, conducte
 d in the morning and evening. Another important ritual is Pallivetta\, hel
 d on the evening of the tenth day\, while the final Aarattu takes place on
  the eleventh evening. The festival is also distinguished by its combinati
 on of ritual observances\, processions\, traditional music and community p
 articipation. A notable ceremonial moment…\n\nEvent page: https://app.ev
