The Dang Darbar holds an immense historical importance. It is said that neither Mughals nor Marathas were successful to conquer the region, even the Britishers were unable to overpower the invincible kings of Gadhavi, Pimpri, Amala-Linga, Vasurana, and Daher. Although the privileges of kings were revoked in 1954, the contribution of these five royal  families  was celebrated by giving political pension every year one the first day of the Dang Darbar Festival. People from nearby 300 villages gather during the Darbar in Ahwa to honor the five kings. The main attractions of the festival include music and dance performance, showcasing the art & culture of natives. Various event activities like magic show, dayro, and karaoke make the fair enjoyable. For visitors, Dang Festival offers a great occasion to live through the lives and culture of tribal people of the region that include Kunbis, Bhils, Gamits and Warlis.
