When is Ganesh Chaturthi in 2026, and what does it mean?

Ganesh Chaturthi 2026 begins on Monday, 14 September, and the ten-day festival concludes with Ganesh Visarjan on Anant Chaturdashi, Friday, 25 September. It marks the birth of Lord Ganesha — known as Vighnaharta (remover of obstacles) and the god of wisdom and new beginnings, which is why he is honoured before any important task.

Families welcome a Ganesha idol into their homes, offer his favourite modaks, perform daily aarti, and then, on Visarjan, lovingly immerse the idol — bidding Bappa farewell with the promise: “Pudhchya Varshi Lavkar Ya” (“come again soon next year”).
