Sibi Mela, which is also known as ‘Jashn-e-Sibi’, was held at Sibi in Balochistan recently under the supervision of Deputy Commissioner, Sibi Division, Naseer Ahmad Nasir. Sibi is the second largest and historical city of Balochistan; similarly Sibi Mela also has historical background. It is not only a festival for the entertainment or celebration of new season (arrival of spring) but it also generates economic activity i.e. sale and purchase of valuable livestock.

In fact, this event generates an economic activity of approximately Rs 200 million each year. Moreover, Sibi Mela consists of agricultural and industrial exhibition, programmes of Children Academy, Balochistan, circus, fireworks, Horse and Cattle Show, musical nights, movies on mobile cinemas and cultural performances.
