Honorary mention to Emerald Sweet Shop in Lower Tank Bund for consistently drawing crowds on the occasion of Ganesh Chaturthi. And yes, even on the very morning of the festival.

You can decide to donate as much as you like but the implication stands that festivities and rituals should be accessible to all.
