Calendar 2026-27
Gaudiya Festival Dates
2026-27 year (540 year of Gaurabda era) Govardhan, India
Sri Sri Guru Gaurangau Jayatah
All dates and times listed here are calculated for Kolkata, India, as referred to at Sri Chaitanya Saraswat Math, Sri Nabadwip Dham.
During his 21st World Tour, Srila Bhakti Sundar Govinda Dev-Goswami Maharaj instructed that throughout the world the devotees will follow this calendar for all dates except for Ekadashis which may be calculated locally according to the lunar calendar.
In this way the days of appearance, disappearance, and other Pastimes of the Lord and His devotees will be observed on the actual day they took place in India, rather than according to the technical local calculation of the ‘tithi’ (lunar day) which often had devotees observing.
The 2026-27 year (540 year of Gaurabda era) calendar is compiled according to the method used by Srila Gurudev, Srila Guru Maharaj and Srila Bhakti Siddhanta Saraswati Thakur.
Compiled by
B. P. Padmanabh
‘Fast’ on Ekadashi or Maha-Dvadashi, refers to fasting from grains. Please refer to the Ekadashi information on this website for more information. Pran (the day after fasting) refers to breaking fast with grains, after sunrise and before a specified time.
