Diwali 2030 in Frankfurt falls on Saturday, October 26, 2030. Puja window (pradosh) is 6:12 PM to 7:48 PM GMT+2.
The festival of lights. On this new-moon night Rama returned to Ayodhya after fourteen years of exile and victory over Ravana, welcomed by rows (avali) of lamps (deepa). Goddess Lakshmi is worshipped at pradosh with Ganesha for prosperity; in the East, Kali Puja is held the same night. For Jains it marks Mahavira’s nirvana, and for Sikhs, Bandi Chhor Divas.
India’s grandest festival: homes are cleaned and decorated with diyas and rangoli, families gather in new clothes, sweets and gifts circulate, and fireworks light the night sky. The five-day arc runs Dhanteras, Naraka Chaturdashi (Choti Diwali), Lakshmi Puja, Govardhan Puja, and Bhai Dooj.
Lakshmi Puja is performed during pradosh while Amavasya prevails — the window shown here. Keep at least one lamp burning through the night. The next day begins the new year in several regional calendars (e.g., Vikram Samvat in Gujarat).
