Ganesh Chaturthi 2027 in UAE: date and local timings
Ganesh Chaturthi (Vinayaka Chavithi) 2027 falls on Friday 3 September 2027 in all 3 UAE cities listed here. In India it is on Saturday 4 September 2027 – the date differs because the deciding tithi reaches the local part of the day on another calendar date. The rule: Bhadrapada sukla chavithi prevailing at madhyahna; larger coverage wins, tie -> first day. In Dubai the midday (third fifth of daylight) on 3 September 2027 runs 11:02 AM – 1:33 PM local time, and the tithi runs from 3 September 2027 12:49 PM to 4 September 2027 10:56 AM. The table gives the date for each city with the midday window and the tithi in local clock time (daylight saving applied), all computed from the NASA/JPL ephemeris for the city's own sunrise and sunset, never converted from IST.
