Celebrating the first time in Toowoomba Ratha Yatra Festival
The Festival of Chariots (Jagannath Rathyatra) is a grand procession with much fanfare – colours, music, and an atmosphere of peace and positivity.
It symbolizes a procession of peace and cohesion – bringing people of all backgrounds together for the one purpose of pulling a royal chariot through the streets.
Atop the chariot sits the Lord of The Universe, who comes out to greet the people. The festival comes to the people, not the people to the festival.
