Dussehra 2025 in Delhi-NCR: Ravan Dahan Timings & Venues in Delhi, Noida, Gurugram

Dussehra is celebrated across India to signify the victories of good over evil; a celebration of the victory of Lord Rama and his defeat of Ravana. Celebrants gather throughout gardens in and around Delhi-NCR to see a Ravan Dahan ceremony, fireworks, and more Ramlila to end the Nine Nights celebration.

Why is Dussehra Important?

Vijayadashami, or Dussehra, brings to light the defeat of malicious forces. Effigies of Ravana, Meghnath, and Kumbhakaran are set aflame, urging worshippers to reconcile with their own adverse inner forces. In addition to worshipping Lord Rama and Goddess Durga, this day is also a very spiritual and cultural celebration.
