The Maha Kumbh Mela, one of the world's largest spiritual congregations, is scheduled to take place in 2025 in the holy city of Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh. This grand event will be held from January 13 to February 26, 2025, offering a significant spiritual experience for millions of devotees seeking purification and enlightenment.
The event, which rotates among four sacred cities—Haridwar, Ujjain, Nashik, and Prayagraj—is celebrated along India's revered rivers: the Ganga, Shipra, Godavari, and the confluence of the Ganga, Yamuna, and Sarasvati. In 2025, Prayagraj will host the Maha Kumbh Mela at the Triveni Sangam, a confluence of these holy rivers.
The festival will commence with the Paush Purnima Snan on January 13, 2025, and will conclude on February 26, 2025, aligning with Maha Shivratri. Key bathing dates include Makar Sankranti on January 14, Mauni Amavasya on January 29, Basant Panchami on February 3, and Maghi Purnima on February 12. These auspicious dates will draw pilgrims from around the globe to participate in sacred rituals and immerse themselves in the spiritual energy of the Triveni Sangam.
