त्योहार

त्योहारकबक्या होता है
Solung1–3 SeptemberThe principal Adi festival, marking the crop after sowing and before harvest. Mithun is sacrificed, Ponung is danced through the night, ritual weapons are consecrated, and the ancestors are fed. It is the fixed point of the Adi year and the observance around which Pasighat organises itself.
Mopin5 April, with observances from 2 to 8 AprilThe Galo festival addressed to Mopin Ane, the goddess of prosperity and crop. Participants smear each other with ette, a wet rice-flour paste, dance Popir in white cloth, sacrifice mithun and distribute apong from bamboo cups. Aalo holds the largest celebration.
Aran7 MarchThe Adi hunting festival. Men go out for about a week, the Tapu war dance is performed, and the meat taken is shared out by household. It is the observance most directly tied to the pre-monsoon window when the hills are still passable.
Etor15 MayThe Adi festival of fencing and cattle — fields are enclosed against the coming crop, the welfare of mithun and cattle is ritually addressed, and the Delong dance is performed in the community hall.
Si-Donyi6 JanuaryThe Tagin festival of the Subansiri basin, addressed to the earth and the sun. Observed at Daporijo and across Upper Subansiri.
Dree5 JulyThe Apatani agricultural festival at Ziro, held for the standing crop and against pest and blight. It belongs to the Apatani specifically and falls in the middle of the rains, unlike almost everything else in the regional calendar.
Podi-BarbiEarly in the year, varying by villageObserved by the Bori, one of the Adi groups, and an example of how many smaller community-specific observances sit underneath the four or five festivals that get printed on calendars.
LosarFebruary–March, following the Tibetan calendarObserved in the Memba villages at the head of the valley and around Mechuka — new year in a Buddhist calendar, in the same region as an entirely separate agricultural one.
Basar ConfluenceUsually NovemberA contemporary festival run by the Basar community since 2016, built around village homestays, food, craft and the Hie valley landscape. Included because it is a working example of a community setting its own terms for visitors rather than being programmed by an agency.
