Festivals, Melas & Celebrations in Hyderabad
28 events coming up across Hyderabad — mostly festival (28). 3 are free.
Hyderabad's year is marked by festivals that belong to this city in particular. Bathukamma, Telangana's flower festival, runs from 10 to 18 October in 2026 and ends at Tank Bund; Dasara follows on 20 October and Diwali on 8 November, with the Sadar buffalo carnival at Narayanguda two days later. Numaish fills the Exhibition Grounds at Nampally from 1 January to 15 February, and the kite festival comes to Parade Grounds at Sankranti. Ramzan turns the lanes around Charminar into a night bazaar. In the monsoon, Bonalu moves from Golconda to Secunderabad's Ujjaini Mahakali temple and the Old City, and Ganesh Chaturthi brings the towering Khairatabad Ganesh and the immersion at Hussain Sagar. This page lists festival events, melas and celebrations across Hyderabad and Secunderabad.
