The lunar calendar plays a crucial role in the declaration of the date and day of the festival. Unlike Christmas and Bausakhi, almost every other Hindu festival is celebrated in the traditionally followed way on the count of the phases of the moon.

These commemorations are a sight to watch and this time is the best to book flight ticket from Canada to India to experience the rich Indian culture and the best of the traditional rituals, foods, and warm welcomes!

Popular Days: Exclusive Nationality

Events like- Diwali, Dussehra, Independence Day, Republic Day(26/01), Christmas, and Baisakhi are also the national Holidays. Though there are many other guest holidays in the country, the festivals that have become national holidays are celebrated by almost every region and religion.

Closing

If we dig deeper, the list of festivals in India will not end that easily. With such a grand variety of cultural expansion, India the subcontinent is almost prosperous the entire year. You will land in India at any time of the year and there will be some sort of festival or national celebration in some corner of the country. That is how joyous the land is.
