In a preemptive move to ensure seamless travel experiences, the staff at Kempegowda International Airport in Bengaluru is advising passengers flying on November 24th, 25th, and 26th to arrive well in advance. The reason behind this advisory is the scheduled Kambala event at Bengaluru’s Palace Grounds, which is expected to draw VIPs, causing potential traffic disruptions across the city.
On November 25th and 26th, the Kambala event is set to unfold at the Palace Grounds, attracting a multitude of VIPs and celebrities from Sandalwood and Bollywood. With this congregation of notable personalities, the city anticipates increased traffic congestion, particularly in the vicinity of Bengaluru Airport.
Airport officials have proactively alerted travelers about the expected heavy traffic flow from Bengaluru city to the airport during the specified dates. It is recommended that passengers factor in potential delays and schedule their trips accordingly, allowing ample time to navigate through possible congestion.
The management underlines the importance of staying informed by closely monitoring alerts from their respective airlines. With the presence of numerous celebrities during the Kambala event, the city is gearing up for heightened activity and increased footfall in and around the airport.
Adding to the anticipation, about 200 pairs of buffaloes and their owners have traveled from coastal areas to Bengaluru for the Kambala event. The preparations at the Palace Grounds have been completed, with participants and animals undergoing a trial run on Thursday.
Contrary to rumors, organizers have clarified that tickets for the Kambala event will not be available for purchase. The event is open for everyone who wishes to witness the race live, with the main days scheduled for Saturday and Sunday.
In conclusion, Bengaluru Airport’s advisory serves as a thoughtful reminder for travelers to plan ahead, stay informed, and factor in potential delays during this period of heightened activity in the city.
