Ganesh Chaturthi 2026
Ganesh Chaturthi follows Shukla Chaturthi in the Hindu month of Bhadrapada. It runs for about 10 days nationally.
A common question is why the date moves. The Hindu calendar is lunisolar: it tracks the moon for months and the sun for years, which means the civil date of a lunar festival drifts by up to about a fortnight from one year to the next. Islamic festivals follow the purely lunar Hijri calendar and move roughly eleven days earlier every year, subject to moon sighting. A handful of festivals — Makar Sankranti, Vaisakhi, Pongal and the other solar ones — stay on nearly the same date. The entry below tells you which of these applies here.
The festival's heartland. Home Ganpatis for 1.5, 5, 7 or 10 days, hundreds of neighbourhood mandals with large idols, daily aarti, and Anant Chaturdashi immersion. Mumbai's Lalbaugcha Raja and Dagdusheth Halwai in Pune are the most visited pandals in the country.
Observed as Vinayaka Chaturthi with a home puja, kolukattai as the offering, and Vinayagar Agaval recitation. The public pandal culture is minimal compared with Maharashtra.
Largely a domestic festival with home idols and modak or kudumulu offerings. Hyderabad and Bengaluru now have growing community celebrations.
Celebrated as Chavath, with the Gauri puja and a distinct Saraswat ritual sequence, plus the traditional matoli — an arrangement of wild fruits and vegetables suspended above the idol.
Ganesh Chaturthi is observed mainly at home and at community pandals in markets, with a shorter duration than in Maharashtra. It is not a regional holiday in the same way.
