Time to see more. The ritual night, a slow cultural day of weaving, food and coast, and time to rest between late finishes. Kolathunadu is the old name of the Kannur region.

For travellers who want to go deeper. Three or more days across the district line: several ritual nights, a visit with a family that keeps the Theyyam, and the people behind the ritual, the maker of the attire, a musician and a weaver.

Theyyam season runs from late October to May. Give us tentative dates, flexible is fine, and we suggest the best weeks, then confirm the rituals closer to travel.
Both. You can join a small group, or travel privately with friends or family.
Not always. Many shrines ban photography and video, some for the whole ritual. Your guide tells you the rules at each place, and we suggest you simply be present.
