Yes, tourists are warmly encouraged to join the traditional Avurudu games. During the New Year festival, villages and hotels host massive open events featuring pillow fighting on a pole, tug of war, and hitting the clay pot blindfolded.

Locals absolutely love it when foreigners participate in these joyful, chaotic games. It is a fantastic, highly authentic way to immerse yourself in the culture and make friends with the community.
