Diwali 2027 in Dubai
Diwali (Deepavali, Lakshmi Puja) 2027 in Dubai (United Arab Emirates) is on Thursday 28 October 2027; in India it is on Friday 29 October 2027, because Dubai's local day reaches the deciding tithi on a different calendar date. The Deepavali tithi (Bahula Amavasya) runs from 28 October 2027 7:18 PM to 29 October 2027 5:36 PM Dubai time. The date is fixed by the tithi at pradosha (the first fifth of the night after sunset), which in Dubai on that day is 5:41 PM – 8:13 PM. Check of the rule: 27 October 2027: pradosha 5:41 PM–8:14 PM, tithi covers 0%; 28 October 2027: pradosha 5:41 PM–8:13 PM, tithi covers 36%; 29 October 2027: pradosha 5:40 PM–8:13 PM, tithi covers 0%.
