In 2000,
state government of Nagaland started the festival to establish the
different tribes of Nagaland to understand each other's customs and
culture better. The result is the Hornbill festival in which all the 16
tribes of the state congregate in traditional dress and perform their
folk music and dance at a single location-the Naga Heritage village,
KISAMA 12 km away from Kohima. The festival will be held for a week from
December 1-7 which also includes Hornbill literature festival that
focuses on state writers and poets.
