Cultural life of Bangalore is closely related to the diversity of its population. More or less every nook and corner of India have their representative in this Silicon Valley and multi cultural spirit can also be witnessed during any festival when the folks iron out the region, religion, class, caste barriers and take part heartily. However, Bangalore has its own traditional festivals like Bangalore Karaga, Dussera, Deepavali, Ganesh Chaturthi, Makara Sankrati and Ugadi.

The Bangalore Karaga or Karaga Mahotsava stands out as the oldest event celebrated in Bangalore. Dussera is the state festival of the Karnataka state, that represents the victory of truth. A standard traditional remembrance of the antique kingdom of Mysore, the festival has a great importance to the Kannadiga population in Bangalore.

Other festivals like Sri Ramanavami, Varamaha Lakshmi Vrata, Sri Krishna Janmastami, Vaikunta Ekadashi, Holi, Ramzan, Bakrid and Christmas are also celebrated with equal spirit and enthusiasm.

The food habits of Bangaloreans differ from person to person. Idly, Poori, Dosa, Sambar, Rice and Bisibelebath are preferred by the Kannadigas.
