Faith calendars
The sacred days of seven traditions, each kept by its own calendar. See them, plan around them, and add the ones that matter to you to your phone.
Dates follow the Hindu lunisolar calendar as published for India (Drik Panchang). Communities elsewhere sometimes keep a festival a day earlier or later; your temple's announcement comes first. Years not yet published in full are left out rather than guessed.
- Maha ShivaratriThe Great Night of Shiva, kept with fasting and an all-night vigil.
- Raksha BandhanThe bond between brothers and sisters, sealed with a sacred thread.
- Ganesh ChaturthiThe birth of Lord Ganesha, a festival of up to ten days.
- DiwaliThe festival of lights.
Every tradition is shown by its own calendar and in its own words. If a date is wrong for your community, tell us and we will correct it. Contact
