Questions
Which Hindu festivals are in August 2027 in Australia?
Aadi Amavasai: Aug 2; Aadi Perukku: Aug 3; Varalakshmi Vratam: Aug 13; Raksha Bandhan: Aug 17; Krishna Janmashtami: Aug 25.
Why are some dates in Australia different from India?
A festival is fixed by the tithi at the right time of day (sunrise, sunset, moonrise and so on) in your own city. Australia is 4½ to 15½ hours away from India, so the same tithi can fall on a different local day. This month 4 of 16 days differ from India.
