Reserve your exact seat or a guaranteed spot on board for Dev Diwali 2026 in Varanasi — choose a numbered seat on the Bajra or Cruise, or a confirmed ticket on the Motor Boat.
Not all boats book the same way. On VisitKashi, the Dev Diwali Seat Booking system works in two ways depending on the boat you choose: a live seat-map selection where you pick your own numbered seat, or a guaranteed general ticket with an automatically generated ticket number. Both options confirm your place on board for 24 November 2026 — the choice just depends on how much control you want over exactly where you sit.
The Bajra Boat and Luxury Cruise both come with a live deck seat map. Seats are labelled by row letter and column number — for example A1, A2, A3, A4 — and shown in green when available and red once booked. You select your own seats directly on the map before checkout, and the system only lets you choose seats in sequence so your entire group stays seated together in one contiguous block instead of being split up.

The Normal Motor Boat and Light Motor Boat are general admission — there's no deck seat map, but every booking still gets a unique, sequential ticket number so your seat on board is guaranteed and easy to verify at boarding. Tickets are numbered N1, N2, N3… for the Normal Motor Boat and L1, L2, L3… for the Light Motor Boat, generated automatically in the order bookings are made.

Dev Diwali is the single busiest night of the year on the Varanasi ghats. Without a confirmed seat or ticket number, families and groups risk being split up or left waiting at boarding time. Booking your seat or ticket online in advance with VisitKashi guarantees your exact spot, your group stays together, and you skip the chaos at Ravidas Ghat entirely.
With over 10,000+ happy guests served since 2017, VisitKashi runs its own fleet and its own booking system — there's no third-party reseller between you and your seat. Every seat-map booking and every ticket number is recorded directly against your name and phone number, so boarding on the night is quick and verifiable.
Seat-map slots on the Bajra and Cruise are limited every night. Secure your exact seat for Dev Diwali 2026 now.
