The inside line Curated calendar
Jaipur illuminates the walled city for the five days of Diwali and runs a formal competition between the bazaars for the best-lit street, which is why Johari and Tripolia look the way they do. The main night is 8 November 2026, with Lakshmi Puja at dusk in every home and business, followed by fireworks over the old city. Daytime is jeweller and textile territory — the Gem Palace and the block-printing workshops at Bagru and Sanganer. Air quality after the main night is poor and hotel rates are at their annual peak, so plan the arrival, not just the stay.
