Festivals and Celebrations

Nepal's culture is rich and unique. There are 365 days of festivals and celebrations in Nepal, and according to the solar and lunar calendar, several of them last one to several days. Most festivals include dancing and music, and various foods are consumed during festivals and on special occasions.

This multi-dimensional heritage encompasses the diversities of Nepal’s ethnic, tribal, and social groups, and it manifests in music and dance; art and craft; folklore and folktales; languages and literature; philosophy and religion; festivals and celebration; foods and drinks. The 2011 Census listed a population of around 28 million belonging to 125 castes and more than 101 ethnic groups speaking 123 languages. Nepal’s linguistic heritage has evolved from three major language groups: Indo-Aryan, Tibeto-Burman, and Indigenous languages. The major languages of Nepal are Nepali, Maithili, Bhojpuri, Tharu, Tamang, Nepal Bhasa, Magar and others. The distinction in caste and ethnicity brought together diversity in life, food, and spoken language.
