About Rajpath Navratri
વારસો ગુજરાતનો · રંગ ભાવનગરનો
Rajpath Navratri is Bhavnagar's garba — nine days of the goddess, ten nights of dancing, and a ground where half the city seems to know the other half.
What began as a neighbourhood celebration has grown into one of the biggest Navratri gatherings in the city: a proper stage, live artists every night, and thousands of families, friends and colleagues who come back to the same ground year after year. The steps are the traditional ones. The energy is Bhavnagar's own.
Two names, one ground
For Navratri 2026, Rajpath Navratri and Bhavena ni Ratladi come together and present the festival jointly — two organising teams, one celebration, at Jawahar Maidan in the middle of the city. Both names stand equally behind every one of the ten nights.
Navratri 2026
- Ten nights — 11 to 20 October 2026.
- Jawahar Maidan, opposite Reliance Mall, Bhavnagar.
- Five headline artists across the festival.
- Digital entry — every pass is a personal QR code in the official app.
- Title sponsor — Ved ICU, Dr. Dhananjay Dave.
Why we moved to a digital pass
Paper passes meant long counter queues at the gate, torn coupons, and passes that could be copied or passed around. From 2026 every entry is a personal QR code held in the Rajpath Navratri app: one pass per person, scanned once, working even when the network on a crowded ground does not.
It is faster for you at the gate, and it means the ground holds the number of people it is supposed to hold — which matters for everybody's safety.
