Why it Matters

Most Indian festivals follow the lunar Hindu Panchang, so their Gregorian dates shift every year — making it hard to plan travel, leave, and celebrations in advance. Having the dates, weekdays, and countdowns for several years in one view turns that uncertainty into a simple lookup. Knowing whether Diwali falls on a weekend can decide a whole trip.

What this tool does

The Festival Date Calculator lists the dates of major Indian festivals for 2025, 2026, and 2027 — Diwali, Holi, Eid, Ganesh Chaturthi, Navratri, and many more — each with its weekday and a days-until countdown. Filter by type and the next upcoming festival is highlighted for you.

How it works

The tool uses a curated dataset of festival dates based on the standard Hindu Panchang and published calendars. For your chosen year it computes each festival’s weekday and how many days away it is from today, then sorts them and flags the next one. The logic is a pure function, so the same selection always produces the same list.

A note on accuracy

Lunar festival dates can vary by ±1 day depending on your location and the regional Panchang you follow, and moon-sighting festivals like Eid are estimates. For rituals with specific muhurat timings, always confirm against your local Panchang.

Privacy

Everything runs locally in your browser. Nothing you select is uploaded, logged, or stored.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do festival dates change every year?
Most Hindu festivals are set by the lunar Panchang, which tracks the Moon's phases (tithis) rather than the fixed Gregorian calendar. Because a lunar year is about 11 days shorter than a solar year, festivals like Diwali and Holi drift across the Gregorian calendar from one year to the next, then realign periodically.
Which festivals does the calculator include?
It covers the major Hindu festivals (Makar Sankranti, Holi, Ram Navami, Raksha Bandhan, Janmashtami, Ganesh Chaturthi, Navratri, Dussehra, Karwa Chauth, the full Diwali cluster, and Chhath Puja), plus Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha, Good Friday and Christmas, Guru Nanak Jayanti, and national holidays.
How accurate are the dates?
Hindu festival dates follow the standard Panchang and widely published calendars, and are accurate to within a day for most of India. Because lunar dates depend on local sunrise and regional tradition, they can vary by ±1 day by location. Moon-sighting festivals (Eid) are estimates, while national and Christian fixed dates are exact.
Why might Diwali show a different date than my local calendar?
Diwali's main day (Lakshmi Puja) falls on the Amavasya (new moon), and the exact day can differ by one depending on your city's sunrise and the regional Panchang you follow. The tool uses the most widely cited national date; always confirm with your local Panchang for rituals with specific muhurat timings.
Is any data sent anywhere?
No. The calculator uses a built-in dataset and runs entirely in your browser. Nothing you select is uploaded, logged, or stored — refreshing the page simply resets your choices.
