Dashain Festival

Dashain is the biggest festival in Nepal, and it is celebrated in the month of Ashwin (late September or early October). Nepalese of all castes and creeds throughout the nation celebrate it because it is the longest and most auspicious festival in the nation. The festival is celebrated for fifteen days. People worship manifestations of Goddess Durga for the first nine days. Thousands of goats and buffaloes are sacrificed throughout the country on the eighth and ninth days of the festivals. The tenth day is the main day of the festival, as people receive Tika and Jamara from elders and receive their blessing. Dashain is also the time of great family reunion as family members from far off and distant relatives come for a visit as well as to receive Tika from the head of the family.

The festival session of 2023 has been starting from 3rd October to 16th October 2024. Dashain celebrates more than 10 days, the first day called Ghatasthapana (Date 03rd October) and the last day called Kojagrat Purnima (16th October). The most important day is called Dashami; this year it is on the 12th of October. During this day, people take Tika, Jamara, and blessings from elders. Phulpati,Mahaastami, and Mahanawami are celebrated with great joy after Dashami (Tika). Let’s celebrate Vijaya Dashami with us for your extreme experience. Happy Vijaya Dashami 2081!!
