The offerings include: beef, a bowl of soup, sticky rice, rice cakes, wine, fruits, and an incense burner. The shaman performs the ceremony, expressing respect and gratitude to heaven and earth, praying for the mountain and land spirits to bless the people with a healthy and peaceful new year, a bountiful harvest, full granaries of corn and rice, and thriving livestock and poultry.
The festival included traditional folk games such as khene dance, pao throwing, tu lu game, and crossbow shooting, which received enthusiastic support and encouragement from the local people and tourists.
