Things to Do in Kathmandu in November 2026
November glows with Tihar, the festival of lights — homes and streets strung with lamps, marigolds and rangoli. The weather stays clear and cool, wedding season fills the city with music, and the concert and nightlife calendar hits its autumn peak.
Planning around the festival? Tihar 2026: Laxmi Puja, Bhai Tika and the lights.
