Ganesh Chaturthi 2026: Date, Sthapana Muhurat and the 10-Day Festival
Ganesh Chaturthi 2026 begins on Monday, 14 September 2026 and runs for ten joyous days, ending with Ganesh Visarjan around Anant Chaturdashi (25 September). It honours Lord Ganesha, remover of obstacles and lord of beginnings.
Sthapana and puja
Families install a clay murti of Ganpati with pranapratishtha during the auspicious midday muhurat, then offer modak, durva grass and daily aarti. The mood is warm, musical and full of devotion.
Why Ganesha first
Ganesha is invoked before any new venture, which makes this festival especially dear to those beginning something: a home, a business, a journey.
Before any beginning, we remember the one who clears the way.
