Festival Significance

Vasant Panchami heralds the arrival of spring and is dedicated to Goddess Saraswati, the deity of knowledge, music, and arts. Yellow is the color of the day, symbolizing the mustard fields of spring.

Rituals

Wear yellow clothes. Perform Saraswati Puja — place books, instruments, and pens near the idol. Offer yellow flowers and sweets. In Bengal, this day marks Saraswati Puja with elaborate pandals.
