During the Sirimanu Utsavam, the temple priest performs a procession between the fort and the temple three times each evening while suspended from a 60-foot wooden staff, believed to be possessed by the goddess. The festival attracts two to three lakh devotees from neighboring towns and villages. Local authorities and leaders in Vizianagaram manage the event, and APSRTC operates approximately 250 buses from various parts of the state to transport attendees.
