Mahashivratri is one of the most auspicious festivals in India. It is the day that marks the divine and sacred union of Goddess Parvati and Lord Shiva. It represents balance, harmony and cosmic energy. The festival is during the Magha month and is considered to bring spiritual cleansing, blessings and inner peace.
Each year, the followers celebrate this religious night by fasting, praying and chanting Har Har Mahadev. As Maha Shivratri 2026 is just around the corner many devotees are confused about the date of the festival. Would it be on February 15 or on February 16?
