The festival of Guru Purnima is observed on a full-moon day (purnima) during the Hindu lunar calendar month of Ashadha, which corresponds to June–July in the Gregorian calendar. Since the observance is linked to the Moon, the date changes each year. In 2026 the festival will be celebrated on July 29 and in 2027 it will be observed on July 18.
