Most of the participants are female elephants. The elephants are decorated with paintings on the trunks, foreheads and feet, and covered with interesting trinkets. A royal procession of sixty elephants is the hallmark of the festival. Caparisoned elephants, lancers on horses, chariots, camels, cannons and palanquins in an ambience of the royal era are eye-catching. Games such as tug of war, elephant race and elephant polo are some of the main attractions.

Finally, the tourists are invited to mount the elephants and play Holi.
