Kaila Devi Fair is held at Kaila village in the month of Mar-Apr. This annual fair is devoted to the goddess of wealth, Mahalakshmi. Over 2 lakh pilgrims gather at the place during the Kailadevi fair. They travel about twenty kilometers to reach the Kailadevi temple. While covering this distance, they even draw lines with their hands in that direction. Some of the devotees endure the rigours of the journey without eating food and taking rest. A lively atmosphere is created by song and dance performances by the groups of Mina tribesmen.
