കൊട്ടിയൂരിൽ മകം കഴിഞ്ഞു. സ്ത്രീകളും ആനകളും വിടവാങ്ങി ഇനി ഭൂതഗണങ്ങളുടെ ഉത്സവം. ഉച്ചശീവേലി കഴിഞ്ഞ് മധുരം നുണഞ്ഞ് ആനകള്‍ കൊട്ടിയൂര്‍ പെരുമാളുടെ സന്നിധാനത്തില്‍ നിന്നു മടങ്ങി വിശേഷ വാദ്യവും ഇന്നു മുതല്‍ ഉണ്ടാകില്ല. ഇനി ഈ വര്‍ഷം വൈശാഖ ഉത്സവ ദര്‍ശനത്തിന് സ്ത്രീ ഭക്തജനങ്ങള്‍ പ്രവേശനാനുമതിയില്ല. നല്ലൂരാനും കുലാല സംഘവും മണ്‍കലങ്ങളും തലയിലേറ്റി അക്കരെ സന്നിധാനത്തില്‍ എത്തിയാല്‍ നിഗൂഢ പൂജകളുടെ ദിനങ്ങള്‍ ആരംഭിക്കും.

The venue is the Akkara Kottiyoor Temple which only opens during festival days annually (Chothi asterism of the Malayalam month of Edavam to the Chithira asterism of the Malayalam month of Midhunam). The dates normally fall between May-June. The twenty eight day festival commences with the Neyyattam ritual on the Swati Day in Edavam and concludes with the Thrikkalashaattu.

The Vaisakha Maholsavam celebrations begin with the ritual of bringing a sword from Muthirerikavu from Wayanad. On the following day, on Visakham star Bhandaram Ezhunnallath ritual is held. Gold, Silver vessels, heavenly ornaments etc are brought from nearby Manathana village to Kottiyoor.

An important ritual during the festival is the 'Elaneer Vayppu' or submitting tender coconuts before the swayambhu Shiva linga. On this special day, thousands of tender coconuts carried from different parts of Malabar by the devotees are submitted. The following day, the main priest of the temple, pours the collected coconut water on to the idol which is known as 'Elaneeraattam'.

Rohini Aaradhana is a very important ritual which is not seen in any other temple. The priest embraces the swayambhu Shiva linga as part of the ritual. The belief behind this ritual is that Brahma himself worships Lord Shiva to pacify for the loss of Sati.

As a part of the festival, a procession (Ezhunnallippu) is held with two elephants carrying the idols of Lord Shiva and Parvathi. After the procession, the elephants are fed well (Aanayootu) and given a formal farewell.
