The annual Magh Mela religious festival will commence on January 3, 2026, and conclude on February 15, 2026, at the Triveni Sangam in Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh. Millions of devotees are expected to participate in the month-long event, which begins with Paush Purnima and ends on Mahashivratri. The core ritual involves a holy dip in the Sangam, believed to cleanse sins and grant spiritual merit. A significant practice is Kalpvas, where devotees observe a month of austerity, including daily baths, meditation, and sattvik food, sleeping on the ground to renounce worldly comforts.
