About the 2027 festival calendar

Most Hindu festivals follow the lunar calendar, so their Gregorian dates shift a little each year. This list computes each festival from its tithi and paksha (or solar sankranti) for 2027. Regional and community observances can vary by a day, so confirm important dates with your local panchang.

Frequently asked questions

When is Diwali in 2027?

In 2027, Diwali (Lakshmi Puja) falls on 29 October 2027. Dhanteras, Chhath and Bhai Dooj fall around the same period.

Why do festival dates change every year?

Hindu festivals are set by the lunar calendar and specific tithis, which do not line up exactly with the Gregorian solar calendar. As a result each festival shifts by roughly 10 to 11 days year to year, moving back into place after a leap (Adhik) month.

Are these dates exact?

The dates are computed with the Lahiri ayanamsa and are accurate to the day in most cases. Because some festivals depend on sunrise, sunset or midnight timing and on regional tradition, always confirm important dates with your local panchang.
