This paper delves into the conservation of age-old traditions by the Tibetan population residing in McLeodganj, also known as “Little Lhasa,” located in the Kangra district of Himachal Pradesh. It examines the ways in which the Tibetan community has worked towards preserving their cultural heritage and explores the evolution of their festivals influenced by factors such as migration and globalization. By investigating these aspects, the paper sheds light on the dynamic nature of Tibetan traditions and the adaptations made by the community in the face of changing circumstances.
