Lokanarkavu Temple is an ancient Hindu temple dedicated to goddess Durga devi situated in Memunda, 4 km from Vatakara, in Kozhikode District, North Malabar region of Kerala state of south India.

Lokanarkavu is a short form of Lokamalayarkavu which means lokam (world) made of mala (mountain), aaru (river) and kavu (grove).

The week-long festival begins with Kodiyettam (flag hoisting) and concludes with Arattu.

This is the only temple where a peculiar folk dance called Poorakkali is presented during festivals.

Even today, all Kalaripayattu artists seek the blessings of the deity before their debut due to the association of Lokanarkavu Temple with legendary hero thacholi othenan.
