Your live singer in Mangaluru

Mangaluru sits on the coast of Karnataka, with beaches such as Panambur and Someshwar, the Kadri temple and St Aloysius Chapel with its painted ceiling. The Mangalore tile, cashew and coffee trades built the city, and its fish curry, ghee roast and Mangalore buns are known throughout the country.

The city has a distinctive blend of communities. Tulu-speaking Bunts and Billavas, Konkani Hindus and Catholics, and Beary Muslims all have their own festivals and wedding customs, and Mangaluru’s medical and engineering colleges draw students from across India and the Gulf.

Events are lively, and Konkani and Tulu songs are enjoyed alongside Hindi and English. A set with Hindi film songs, Sufi music and a few well-known English numbers suits a wedding or a college fest, and the band plans for the heavy monsoon on the coast.

The year in Mangaluru

Dasara and the Mangaluru Dasara procession, Ganesh Chaturthi and Christmas are the biggest festivals. Kambala buffalo races in winter and the wedding season from November to February add events. The monsoon is wet.

What Mangaluru hosts expect

The city is cosmopolitan and courteous. Hosts like a well-planned programme that respects the various communities and finishes on time.

A coastal set for Mangaluru

Mangaluru weddings are trilingual. A good set offers a Hindi romantic block, a lively dance block with a Konkani or Tulu favourite requested by the family, and a handful of English songs for the Catholic community’s receptions. Dasara nights favour devotional pieces, and college fests take the loudest tracks.

Venues and planning in Mangaluru

Mangaluru’s weddings use convention halls and banquet halls in the city, church halls for Catholic receptions, beach resorts at Panambur, Someshwar and towards Udupi, and community halls of the Konkani, Tulu and Beary communities.

The international airport has flights from Mumbai and the Gulf, and the Konkan Railway links the coast. The monsoon from June to September is very heavy, so most weddings fall in the dry months. Udupi and Manipal, an hour north, add their own venues and colleges.
