Reference Panchang timings shown for London. Panchang timings vary by city and time zone.
Why moonrise differs
The moon rises at different clock times because longitude, latitude, horizon geometry and local time zones differ. For Karwa Chauth, use a location-based Panchang and your nearest city rather than a single country-wide moonrise time.
Festival Moments
2026 timing note
Karwa Chauth is location-sensitive. In 2026, the local Panchang places the observance on Thursday, October 29, 2026 for UK. If you are between listed cities, confirm the exact local puja and moonrise time with a trusted location-based Panchang.
