The Jauljibi fair is held each year during the month
of February while the Thal fair is celebrated in the month of April.
This place also holds significance because it is at this place where the
Rivers Kali and Gori converge. It is also the meeting place of various
cultures, like Shauka, Nepali and Kumaoni. Jauljibi also acts as the
getaway to places like Johar, Darma, Chaudans and Byans.
This fair is not only important from a cultural or commercial point of
view, it also holds importance because each year, many visitors come
from as far as Nepal, to sell horses, ghee and take back food grains and
jaggery in return.
A very similar kind of fair is also organized in Thal during the
festival of Makar Sankranti, or on the occasion of Vaishakh Sankranti,
on 14th of April, each year. It is particularly famous with the Shaukas.
