About Pohela Boishakh

15 April 2027

Pohela Boishakh opens the Bengali calendar with colour and community. Businesses restart ledgers, families visit temples and relatives, and streets host processions of music and folk art. As a solar new-year observance near Mesha Sankranti, it belongs to the same season as Baisakhi and Vishu, yet Bengali reckoning can place Noboborsho a day apart from those regional new years. Madhuma’s festival essentials help you light the home for an auspicious Noboborsho morning.
