Dandiya dance is a traditional classical dance form originating from the state of Gujarat in India. It is usually performed during the Hindu festival of Navratri, which is a nine-day celebration of the goddess Durga.

The dance is accompanied by traditional music played on instruments like the dhol, tabla, and flute.
