Kumbh dates · Status board
This board lists every Kumbh bathing day we track, with its status and the source it comes from. A date is official when the authority in charge has published it in a dated notice, provisional when the authority has announced it but it can still change, and expected when it comes from the Hindu calendar and no authority has announced it yet.
Below the table is a dated log of what changed. When an official date changes, we change it here first, and the calendar feed and every page that shows the date change with it.
Amrit Snan days are marked. Tap a day for its own page, or subscribe to a Kumbh’s dates in your calendar.

Source: NTKMA via Free Press Journal, 24 Sep 2026Many sites publish date lists before any authority has. Some copy an older list, and some take dates from a calendar worked out for a different city, which can move a sankranti by a day. Bathing days follow the tithi, the lunar day, so the same festival falls on a different date every year.
Treat a list as reliable only when it names its source and the date it was checked. If a page calls itself official, check that its address ends in gov.in or nic.in; our page on checking a booking explains the warning signs.
Whenever an authority publishes or changes a date, and at least once a week in a Kumbh season. The date we last checked is at the top of the page.
Yes. Use the subscribe buttons under the table. A subscribed calendar updates itself when a date changes.
No. It is an independent guide run by Tirth.com. Every date links to the official or published source it comes from.
