Thoothukudi’s calendar runs on the port and the parish. The Our Lady of Snows Basilica festival in August is the city’s largest gathering, drawing pilgrims from across the southern districts, and the Shiva temple calendar adds Adi Amavasai and the Chittirai chariot festivals.

Vihaya Events is not affiliated with these events — they are listed to show the kind of programming Thoothukudi supports.
