Onam is a multi-day celebration that typically falls in the Malayalam month of Chingam, corresponding to August or September in the Gregorian calendar. The festival is dedicated to honouring King Mahabali, a mythical and benevolent ruler believed to have ruled Kerala in ancient times. According to legend, King Mahabali was known for his just and prosperous rule, and his reign was marked by a period of great harmony and abundance. Lord Vishnu, taking the form of Vamana (a dwarf Brahmin), came to test Mahabali's devotion and humility. Mahabali's unwavering commitment to his subjects led him to offer his head to fulfil Vamana's request, ultimately earning him a special place in the people's hearts.
A variety of colourful and festive traditions characterise Onam. Elaborate and intricate floral designs, known as pookalams, are created on the floors of homes and public spaces. These vibrant designs use an array of fresh flowers and are a visual spectacle that adds to the festive atmosphere. Colourful and majestic snake boats participate in thrilling races on rivers and backwaters. These races symbolise Kerala's maritime culture and draw enthusiastic crowds.
