World Silambam Day is observed annually on 22 November (22.11) (with Festival Week takes place any dates from 18 to 24 November), aligning with the Tamil month of Karthigai (கார்த்திகை மாதம்) (mid-October to end-November). This date commemorates the birth month of Lord Murugan—also known as Skanda or Kartikeya—who is revered as the progenitor of Silambam. According to tradition, Murugan imparted the art of Silambam to Sage Agastya, leading him to compile three texts on palm leaves, including the Kampu Sutra (Staff Classic), which documents advanced fighting theories in verse. This observance honors the origins and cultural significance of Silambam, promoting its heritage and Indian martial excellence.
This week-long festival offers individuals and organizations a great opportunity to host workshops, competitions, demonstrations, cultural performances, and awareness campaigns, helping to spread the essence of Silambam across the world.
