Diwali 2027 in Jeddah
Diwali (Deepavali, Lakshmi Puja) 2027 in Jeddah (Saudi Arabia) is on Thursday 28 October 2027; in India it is on Friday 29 October 2027, because Jeddah's local day reaches the deciding tithi on a different calendar date. The Deepavali tithi (Bahula Amavasya) runs from 28 October 2027 6:18 PM to 29 October 2027 4:36 PM Jeddah time. The date is fixed by the tithi at pradosha (the first fifth of the night after sunset), which in Jeddah on that day is 5:49 PM – 8:20 PM. Check of the rule: 27 October 2027: pradosha 5:50 PM–8:21 PM, tithi covers 0%; 28 October 2027: pradosha 5:49 PM–8:20 PM, tithi covers 81%; 29 October 2027: pradosha 5:48 PM–8:20 PM, tithi covers 0%.
