Vrat And Festival List 2026: In Sanatan Dharma, every work is done only after seeing the auspicious day and good time. In the New Year, everyone thinks that any special work should be started on an auspicious day or on the day of a special fast or festival related to Gods and Goddesses. The new year 2026 has started from today. In Sanatan Dharma, some fast or festival is observed seven days of the week, about which people remain curious.
When there is confusion in the mind regarding fasts like Ekadashi, Amavasya or Purnima or any other Teej-festival due to increase and decrease of dates, then the attention goes to the calendar. Every year the fasts and festivals are the same from January to December. Only in the new year their dates and dates change slightly. In such a situation, let us know which fast and festival will fall on which date in the year 2026?
