Plan your visit to the world's ancient city for the most spectacular full moon night.
The official **Dev Deepawali Date 2026** is **November 24th (Tuesday)**. This festival, widely considered the most beautiful in the Hindu calendar, is celebrated on the night of Kartik Purnima. In Varanasi, this is the time when the "Festival of Lights of the Gods" takes over the city. Booking your travel and boat rides early is highly recommended to avoid the massive crowds.
In 2026, the Tithi for Kartik Purnima is extremely auspicious. The city of Kashi will host grand events including a synchronized fire show at Chet Singh Ghat and a laser light show at Dashashwamedh. VisitKashi Travel Company, the most trusted local travel company, specializes in providing custom itineraries that center around the exact timings of the Deepawali rituals to ensure you witness the divine beauty from the best vantage points.
