When is Diwali in 2027?
Diwali (Lakshmi Puja) is on Friday, 29 October 2027, by the New Delhi calendar.
When is Holi in 2027?
Holi (Dhulandi, the day of colours) is on Monday, 22 March 2027, by the New Delhi calendar.
Why do festival dates change every year?
Hindu festivals follow the lunar calendar, which is about 11 days shorter than the solar year, so their Gregorian dates move each year. An extra lunar month (Adhik Maas) every few years brings the two back into step.
