Visitors especially can experience first-hand the carnival atmosphere of Pongal celebration. Campbell Lane in Little India will be converted into a pedestrian-only mini village during this period. Here you can browse the stalls and sample some of the festive foods, and perhaps get your hands on unique souvenirs, saris, trinkets, art and crafts daily from 2pm to midnight. (2am on weekends).
For the shutterbugs, Heritage Corner within Campbell Lane in Little India will be set up with live cows and calves for visitors to catch a glimpse and take photographs. Not forgetting that there are daily cultural performances for entertainment. Other activities to be expected are, a mass cooking demonstration, and Singapore pilgrimage tours to visit major temples in the city, during this period of celebrations.
