Lakshmi Puja (the main Diwali night) is on Sunday, 8 November 2026. The five festival days run from Dhanteras a couple of days before to Bhai Dooj two days after.

What is the Lakshmi-puja muhurat time?

The commonly-published evening window is shown above, but the exact muhurat varies by city and year. Always confirm the precise timing with your local panchang — we sell crackers and don't issue muhurats.

How early should I order crackers for Diwali?

Order well ahead of the first evening. Delivery across India takes a few days depending on your state, and demand peaks close to Diwali — ordering early means everything is in hand before Dhanteras.

When is Diwali and what are the five days?

The main night — Lakshmi Puja — falls on Sunday, 8 November 2026, 103 days from today. Diwali is a five-day festival — Dhanteras, Choti Diwali, Lakshmi Puja (the main night), Govardhan Puja / Padwa and Bhai Dooj — so the crackers are spread across several evenings, not just one.

The Lakshmi-puja muhurat above is the commonly-published evening window — exact timings shift by city and year, so check your local panchang for the precise muhurat. We sell the crackers; we don't issue the muhurat. To have everything in hand for the first evening, place your order well ahead — allow a few days for it to reach you across India.
