Dola Purnima, celebrated on the full moon day of the Phalguna month, marks the joyous festival of colors, known as Holi across India. In Jagannath tradition, it holds special spiritual significance as Lord Krishna, an incarnation of Lord Jagannath, is worshipped in his playful, divine form. Idols of the Lord are carried in beautifully decorated palanquins (Dola Biman) and devotees rejoice with kirtans, colors, and offerings, symbolizing love, unity, and divine joy.

Shree Ram Navami marks the divine birth of Lord Shree Ram, the seventh incarnation of Lord Vishnu. Celebrated on the ninth day of Chaitra month (March–April), it is a day of devotion, fasting, and spiritual reflection. Devotees gather to chant Ram bhajans, perform pujas, and recount the sacred Ramayana. Join us in celebrating this auspicious occasion with prayers and cultural events at the Jagannath Temple.
