Kannambra is a gram panchayat in the Palakkad district, state of Kerala, India. It is the local government organisation that serves the villages of Kannambra-I and Kannambra-II.

[1] According to William Logan in the 1700s, only Kannambra Vela and Kavassery Pooram existed in the then Palakkad district.In William Logan's Malabar Manual, the first authoritative history book of Kerala published in 1887, only these two festivals are mentioned in the then Palakkad district.Palakkad was only a taluk in the then Malabar district. Therefore, the present-day Valluvanadan areas are not included in this area.
