Diwali 2026 Lakshmi Puja timings in Australia:

Diwali 2026 will be observed in Australia on Sunday, 8 November 2026. Lakshmi Puja timings differ across Australian cities because of separate time zones, local sunset times and daylight-saving arrangements.
Diwali 2026 Lakshmi Puja timings in Australia:
Sydney: 8:05 PM to 9:33 PM AEDT
Melbourne: 8:39 PM to 10:03 PM AEDT
Canberra: 8:16 PM to 9:43 PM AEDT
Brisbane: 6:46 PM to 8:19 PM AEST
Adelaide: 8:28 PM to 9:55 PM ACDT
Perth: 7:22 PM to 8:53 PM AWST
These timings apply to the named cities. Sydney or Melbourne timings should not be used for Brisbane, Perth or Adelaide. Residents of other locations should check a Panchang calculated for their city or suburb.
Families can plan the puja around the local muhurat by preparing the prayer space and offerings in advance. Community Diwali festivals may be held on different dates, so their programme timings should not be confused with the Lakshmi Puja muhurat.
