Events

Community events in Tura are deeply rooted in traditional agricultural cycles and seasonal celebrations.

* **100 Drums Wangala Festival:** Held every November in nearby Asanang, this is the most famous Garo festival. It is a post-harvest thanksgiving to *Misi Saljong* (the Sun God), featuring hundreds of drummers playing synchronized rhythms while men and women dance in traditional feathered headgear. * **Ahaia Winter Festival:** Held in December, this state-sponsored festival promotes tourism and local culture with music concerts, food stalls, and cultural displays. * **Christmas and New Year:** Given the Christian majority, the entire month of December is festive. The town is highly illuminated, and choir competitions, night markets, and massive community feasts are held throughout Tura.
