Tharu Cultural Show and Stick Dance
Include local music and dance in your Chitwan itinerary.
Chitwan is home to Tharu communities, who share their own unique performances. Tharu cultural dance performances used to be held in the evening before dinner, and you’d enjoy drinks and roasted meats alongside the show to make the evening all the more entertaining.
An evening cultural experience
Tharu performances and the stick dance featured in the original safari programme. Ask your guide about the traditions they represent.
Plan your evening
Confirm the venue, timing and transport so the show fits in around dinner and your other activities.
Good to know
On our 1 to 4-night packages, the cultural programme usually takes place on your first evening. Ask before photographing performers up close, keep your flash off and, if you're invited to join in, have a go. Our post on what to expect at the Tharu stick dance tells you more about the evening.
