The festival starts at night with a solemn dance in traditional costumes with an accompaniment of ancient Kapo music rhythms in Phan Rang. In the early morning of the next day, different worshiping rituals are performed to honour the deity. The festival is really unique, authentic and full of traditional colourful performances. The event is usually held in an open space in the three Champa Towers – Po Nagar, Po Klong Garai, and Po Rome.
