Panche Baaja (Nepali: पञ्चे बाजा)is set of five traditional Nepali musical instruments that are played during auspicious occasions. The jhyali, tyamko, or dholak (drums), damaha (kettledrum), narsiha (a long horn-like instrument), Shehnai (a pipe instrument), and Karnal, (a big-mouthed instrument) comprise the Panche Baaja.

Panche Baajas are usually played by Damais, a Dalit cast according to Hindu tradition.
