A quarterly fair[5]honoring the deity Sri Karagaparameshwari is held in the village, typically in April or May once every nine or twelve years. The fair is said to have begun in 1950 as a result of plague and cholera diseases that were prevalent in the villages at the time. The fair was inaugurated by walking around the village for nine days without shoes or vehicles. Accordingly, the fair that began on that day was held in this manner once every 9 years and even today, people still observe the same customs. When the last fair took place in April 2023, the villagers observed a rigorous fast during which they did not wear sandals for nine days in the sweltering sun.[6] In addition, the villagers prohibited outsiders from visiting the village during the nine days of the fair held there. Once in 9 or 12 years, abhisheka and flowers, specifically Jasmine, are offered to the goddess Karagaparameshwari. Once Abhishekam and Jasmine's decoration is done, a procession throughout Jadigenahalli and the goddess karagaparameshwari reaches Kalabhairaveshwara temple. Poojas are performed to her in the temple after taking her back to the temple. This same process continues for one whole month, that is, from one new moon day to another new moon day. A total of 12 villages take part in this procession. On the last day, the vilagers take her to the hill known as Saptamatrika Betta. Here Saptamatrika and Lord Jade Munshwara’s temple is located. After witnessing the pooja on the hill, she finally returns to her temple, the locals slaughter a large number of sheep in front of the temple.

The village also has an annual fair in April, often before Bengaluru Karaga, where locals offer decorated lamps (Deepotsava) to nine goddesses, beginning from Ugadi and terminates on Ramanavami.
