As in 1983, during each year at Mardi Gras, stalls and counters were put up outside the Open Air Theatre and other locations in the campus for students to catch a bit and take a pause from the events and competitions.

The events took place at different venues such as the Central Lecture Theatre, Open Air Theatre and so on. Events such as Indian Light Music and Fine Arts Competition took place at Shanti Kunj, in 1986, along with sylvan and silent surroundings.
