Chin Lone Festival in 3 Days

[Nyi Nyi ®]

As Wiki quotes,

Chinlone (also known as caneball) is the traditional sport of Burma (Myanmar). Chinlone is a combination of sport and dance, a team sport with no opposing team. In essence chinlone is non-competitive. The focus is not on winning or losing, but how beautifully one plays the game.

 There is a documentary movie about Burmese Chinlone called Mystic Ball directed by a Canadian filmmaker Greg Hamilton. Now Greg is in town participating a Canadian-Myanmar friendship Chinlone Play at the Great Maha Muni Pagoda. The event will take place in Mandalay on January 15, 2014. And it's free entry. Hope this information would help.

Cheers!!
Frankie

Gurus from Mandalay, can you please follow up this news to update the event. Thanks.

Thanks for that information! I love going to those Chinlone festivals at Mahamuni. I've been two times before when I was in Mandalay, but the festivals that I saw were multi-week events and held later in the summer. Does anyone know if there will another big chinlone festival at Mahamuni again later this year? And if so, when will it be?

Dasa, there is annual festival called "Waso Chinlone Festival" at the same place. It takes place after the full-moon of Waso, it means it will start a day after July 11 this year. It stretches - I believe - up to 48 days. Hope this works.
