Traditionally, the 2 grand events organised at the famous Tirupathi temple every year are the Brahmotsavam & Vaikunta Ekadasi.

Generally, Lakhs of devotees eagerly await during these occasions for Darshan & worship of the Lord venkateswara.

During the last year 2015, the festival on the occasion of Vaikunta Ekadasi was performed twice in the Tirupathi temple on 1st January & 21st December.

However, the temple administration authorities have informed that there will be no festival of Vaikunta Ekadasi during 2016.
