The 10-day annual festival begins in the Karthika Nakshatra of Kumbha with the ‘Kodiyettu’ (flag hoisting), which is a very grand occasion. Each day of the utsavam is rich with different cultural activities and celebrations, apart from the special religious rituals and poojas performed in the temple. The utsavam ends with the ‘Pallivetta’ on the 9th day, and finally ‘Aarattu’ on the 10th day.
Thaipooyam is celebrated annually in the month of Makaram, during which devotees resolve to follow special rituals and practices, and visit the temple with ‘kaavadi’ as an offering.
Thrikarthika is the birthday of Lord Subramanyan. Devotees light small diyas (earthen clay lamps) in the night and visit the temple. There are special rituals and poojas performed on this day as well. Thrikarthika is also an annual festival.
Shashti is a monthly festival, which occurs on the 6th day after a new moon. On this day too, devotees follow several rituals and religious practices. Women especially visit the temple on Shashti to be blessed with children, and for the wellbeing of their children.
