Lunisolar festival dates can vary by location, tradition and local panchang; the page does not automatically extrapolate the next year.
What Makar Sankranti is
Marks the sun’s passage into Capricorn and the start of its northward journey. It is one of the very few Hindu festivals tied to the solar calendar, so it barely moves.
How the Date is Determined
The countdown uses the date recorded above. This is a calendar-verified entry whose future date is not extrapolated automatically. A later year is added only after its relevant calendar or authority can be checked.
It is grouped under Hindu for browsing; that label does not change how its date is verified.
What Happens After This Occurrence
After this occurrence passes, this page does not guess the next date. It waits for a verified calendar, government notice, astronomical schedule or organiser announcement, depending on the event. See the full list of upcoming events, or use the countdown timer for a date of your own.
