The Surajkund Mela was first organized in 1987 to promote India’s traditional art forms and handicrafts. It has since grown into a global event, featuring participation from different countries. Named after the historic Surajkund Lake, the fair celebrates India’s vibrant cultural heritage and provides a platform for artisans to showcase their talents.
The Surajkund Mela is one of the largest craft fairs in the world. It has more than 1,000 stalls selling beautiful handicrafts, textiles and cultural artifacts. The fairgrounds are divided into sections representing different Indian states. This gives visitors a chance to explore the rich cultural heritage of the country.
Each year, a theme state is chosen to showcase its special traditions and arts. For 2025, Rajasthan is the theme state. This means visitors will see a special display of Rajasthani culture, folk dances, music and crafts.
Tickets can be purchased online or at the venue.
