About Kumbh Mela 2028

A timeless confluence of devotion and heritage

Once every twelve years, the ancient city of Ujjain hosts Kumbh Mela — known locally as Simhastha — a sacred gathering that draws millions of pilgrims, saints, and seekers to the banks of the holy Shipra River.

The ritual bath in the Shipra is believed to cleanse the spirit and mark a moment of profound renewal. Beyond the rituals, Simhastha is a living celebration of India's rich cultural, philosophical, and religious traditions.

As Ujjain prepares to welcome the world in 2028, this portal will grow into a trusted companion for every visitor and pilgrim.
