About Teej in Kathmandu
Teej is Nepal's great women's festival — a day of fasting, red saris, temple queues at Pashupatinath, and dar khane feasts the nights before. Kathmandu turns crimson and the dohori and Teej-song nights run for a week around it.
Teej peaks in September, and in 2026 the main day falls on Monday, 14 September 2026. Because it moves with the calendar each year, the surrounding events — dinners, concerts, cultural nights and parties — tend to appear in the weeks just before. If the grid above is quiet, it simply means we're out of season: bookmark this page and check back as September nears.
