Questions
Which Hindu festivals are in March 2027 in the USA?
Maha Shivaratri: Mar 6 / Mar 5; Panguni Uthiram: Mar 22.
Why are some dates in the USA 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. USA is 4½ to 15½ hours away from India, so the same tithi can fall on a different local day. This month 6 of 11 days differ from India.
Is the date the same on the East and West coast?
Not always: this month 2 dates differ between time zones, shown side by side in the table.
