It is a celebration of Lord Murugan, the Hindu god of war, and involves devotees carrying kavadis (decorated wooden or metal frames) or piercing their bodies with skewers as acts of penance. The festival is held at the Sri Srinivasa Perumal Temple in Little India and is attended by thousands of people, both locals and tourists, who come to witness and participate in the colorful and spiritual celebration.
