Culture & Etiquette Recommendation / guidance

What is the etiquette at festivals?

Tshechus are religious gatherings first. Stay seated during sacred dances, keep voices low, and don't block the thongdrel viewing. Atsaras (clowns) are religious commentators — laugh respectfully. Offer a small donation if you wish.
