Ganesh Chaturthi, a vibrant and significant festival in Goa, unfolds with an air of excitement, devotion, and grandeur. This annual celebration marks the birth of Lord Ganesha, the revered elephant-headed deity, symbolising wisdom and the remover of obstacles. With its captivating rituals, ornate decorations, and communal spirit, Ganesh Chaturthi illuminates the coastal paradise of Goa like no other occasion.
The Festival's Reverent Commencement
Every year, the fourth day of the waxing moon in the Hindu month of Bhadrapada heralds the commencement of Ganesh Chaturthi. In 2023, this cherished festival will grace Goa's shores from September 19 to 20, inviting locals and visitors alike to partake in the jubilant festivities.
A Celebration Spanning Days of Jubilation
In Goa, Ganesh Chaturthi is not just a fleeting event but an immersive experience that spans a minimum of two days, with the potential to extend up to an aweinspiring 21 days. The festivities start with the ceremonial installation of clay idols of Lord Ganesha in elaborately adorned rooms within homes. These idols become the focal point of heartfelt prayers, accompanied by melodious devotional music and generous offerings.
