Ram Navami

Ram Navami falls on 26/03/2026 this year, marking the birth of Lord Rama, the seventh avatar of Vishnu, on the ninth and final day of Chaitra Navratri, celebrated as the ideal of righteous conduct in Hindu tradition.

Across India it's observed through recitations of the Ramayana and Ramcharitmanas in the days leading up to it, temple processions carrying idols of Rama, and devotional singing (bhajans) through the day. Ayodhya, believed to be Rama's birthplace, sees the largest gatherings, with the Saryu river ghats especially crowded through the festival.

Because many Indian festivals follow the lunar or regional calendars rather than a fixed Gregorian date, the exact day can shift by a day either way — this page reflects the widely reported date for 2026, worth a quick local check closer to the time, especially for moon-sighting-dependent observances like the Eids.

Knowing exactly how many days remain helps with the practical side too: booking leave, planning travel before fares climb, or simply setting expectations with family on when to expect a visit home. That's the gap this countdown fills — one clear, large number, ticking down in real time, so there's no need to keep recalculating by hand or hunting for the date across half a dozen tabs.
