The Patna Golf Club is preparing to host its much-loved Christmas Carnival, marking a significant milestone in 2025. The event is scheduled for Sunday, December 21, on the club's scenic premises, continuing a cherished tradition that has thrived for a quarter of a century.
A Quarter-Century of Festive Celebrations
Having been held continuously for the past 25 years, the Christmas Carnival has grown from a local gathering into one of the most anticipated and popular festive events in Bihar's capital. It consistently draws families and enthusiastic visitors from every corner of Patna, becoming a cornerstone of the city's December calendar. The organisers have designed the daylong programme to offer wholesome entertainment that caters to every age group.
Attractions and Activities for All
The 2025 edition promises a vibrant mix of attractions to keep guests engaged from start to finish. The lineup includes a lively fancy fair, captivating magic shows, and performances by a brass band and musical orchestra. Special games for children will ensure the young ones are entertained, while the excitement of Bumper Housie will appeal to adults. The iconic Santa Claus will be present, adding to the festive cheer and distributing surprise gifts to lucky visitors.
Arvind Singh, the Secretary of Patna Golf Club, emphasised the event's broader significance. He stated that the Christmas Carnival is a reflection of Patna's cultural vibrancy and the strong sense of community participation among its residents. Singh also highlighted that the event is being organised in alignment with the Smart City guidelines of the Bihar government, with a focus on ensuring a safe, enjoyable, and completely family-friendly environment for all attendees. He confirmed that the carnival will be open to the general public.
Community Impact and Support
The successful execution of this large-scale annual celebration is made possible through the support of Bihar Tourism and several private firms. Their cooperation is crucial in mounting an event of this magnitude. Importantly, the club management has outlined a clear plan for the proceeds generated from the carnival. The funds will be strategically utilised for multiple welfare initiatives, including:
- Maintenance and upkeep of the golf course.
- Training and development programs for underprivileged children.
- Community plantation drives to enhance green cover.
- Various other social and community welfare activities.
This approach ensures that the festive joy of the carnival translates into tangible, year-round benefits for the local community and environment, reinforcing the event's role as a force for good in Patna.
