Appearance Days

Appearance days mark the descents of Lord Sri Krishna, His expansions, divine avatars, and the appearances of preeminent acharyas who guide us in the path of devotion.

Note on Dates: Vaishnava festivals and appearance days are observed according to the Vedic lunar calendar (tithis). Because these tithis correspond to different dates on the solar Gregorian calendar each year, specific solar dates are not listed here. To see the scheduled dates for the current year, please consult the active Vaishnava Calendar.
