About Ganesh Chaturthi

Ganesh Chaturthi marks the birth of Ganesha, the elephant-headed god of beginnings, wisdom and the removal of obstacles. It falls on the fourth lunar day of the waxing moon (Shukla Chaturthi) in the month of Bhadrapada. Families and community groups install a clay idol of Ganesha, worship him for one to ten days, and then immerse the idol in water (visarjan).

Ganesh Chaturthi in Dar es Salaam: questions

When is Ganesh Chaturthi 2027 in Dar es Salaam?

Friday, 3 September 2027, by Dar es Salaam's own sunrise and moonrise. In India (New Delhi) it is on Saturday, 4 September 2027, a day later.

Why is Ganesh Chaturthi on a different day in Dar es Salaam than in India?

A festival's date follows the tithi in force at the right moment of the local day (sunrise, Pradosh, midnight or moonrise). Dar es Salaam's day starts at a different instant from New Delhi's, so the same tithi can fall on Friday, 3 September 2027 there and Saturday, 4 September 2027 in India.
