About This Festival 🥳

The *Potekar Festival* is a unique pre-carnival tradition celebrated in the villages of Goa particularly in areas like Diwar island. It is often compared to Halloween because of the way participants dress up in eerie costumes and roam around the village.
Key Features of the Potekar Festival

1. Masked and Disguised Participants:
Locals, usually young men, dress in scary and funny costumes, covering their faces with masks and painting their bodies.
They often wear bells around their waists, adding to the eerie atmosphere.

2.Pre-Carnival Celebration:
The festival takes place three days before Carnival, marking a time of playful mischief before the more organized carnival festivities begin.

3. Mischief and Entertainment:
The "Potekars" roam around villages, knocking on doors, playfully scaring people, and collecting small treats or money, similar to trick-or-treating.
They are not allowed to reveal their identities until the festival ends.

4. Cultural and Religious Significance:
The festival has **pre-Christian roots, possibly linked to ancient fertility or harvest rituals.
Today, it blends with Goan Catholic traditions, leading up to Carnival and Lent.

Why It’s Special:
The Potekar Festival preserves an old Goan tradition, keeping the local culture alive through fun, mystery, and community participation. It is an example of Goa’s unique mix of indigenous customs and Portuguese influence.
