Dholki Garba passes and prices
Entry to Dholki Garba starts from ₹1,000 across 10 nights. That figure is the entry-level category — premium zones nearer the stage, reserved areas and table service all sit above it, and food, beverage and parking are priced separately at effectively every Ahmedabad ground. Because this is a multi-night schedule, a season pass divides down well below the single-night rate. Work out how many nights you will realistically attend before choosing between them.
