Durga Puja is a festival best celebrated with family and friends — and this year, Sanskriti invites you to celebrate it with your loved ones. 🪔

Over three special days, Sanskriti Durga Puja 2026 brings together everything that makes this festival so meaningful — an exquisite pandal and decor crafted with diligence, traditional rituals beginning with Bodhon on October 9th. Alongside the rituals, the celebration comes alive with Dandiya Night on October 9th, vibrant cultural performances on October 10th, and the live concert by Retrodictions band, featuring Bollywood's bengali star Jisshu Sengupta, on October 11th — all set against the warmth of bhog and adda that this community holds so dear and the joyous dhunuchi naach that brings everyone together on the dance floor.

To make sure every family can experience all of it without the hassle of booking separately for each attraction, we're offering family packages covering all three days and more — including:
Premium seats for the music concert
Dedicated parking for our sponsor families and
An invitation to our cherished annual Bijoya Sommeloni, an intimate gathering with food and adda that brings the year to a close together.

Join us in celebrating tradition, togetherness, and everything that makes Sanskriti's Durga Puja special. 💫
