Lohri is a popular winter time Punjabi folk festival, celebrated primarily by Sikhs and Hindus from the Punjab region of Indian subcontinent. The significance and legends about the Lohri festival are many and these link the festival to the Punjab region.[3][4] Many people believe the festival commemorates the passing of the winter solstice.Lohri marks the end of winter season, and is a traditional welcome of longer days and sun's journey to the northern hemisphere by Sikhs and Hindus in the northern regions of the Indian subcontinent. It is observed the night before Makar Sankranti, also known as Maghi, and according to the solar part of the lunisolar Bikrami calendar and typically falls about the same date every year (January 13).
Lohri is an official gazetted holiday in the state of Punjab (India) where the festival is celebrated by Sikhs, Hindus, Muslims and Christians,but it is not a holiday in Punjab (Pakistan).It is, however, observed by Sikhs and some Punjabi Muslims and Christians in Pakistan as well.
Date
Lohri is linked to the Bikrami calendar, and is celebrated the day before the festival of Maghi celebrated in India as Makar Sankranti. Lohri falls in the month of Paush and is set by the solar part of the lunisolar Indian calendar, i.e. in most years it falls on 13 January of the Gregorian calendar (in exception years on 12 or 14 January). Makara (Maghi) sankranti (Sangrand) marks beginning of the solar maagha masa.
For the general latitude and longitude of Punjab, 13 January represents the day after which sunrise occurs progressively earlier in the morning, till about 10 - 12 June. After these days in June, sunrise begins to occur progressively later in the morning till about 10 - 12 January. Therefore, the celebration of lohri on 13 January every year signifies the shift to longer days.
In houses that have recently had a marriage or childbirth, Lohri celebrations will reach a higher pitch of excitement. Punjabis usually have private Lohri celebrations, in their houses. Lohri rituals are performed, with the accompaniment of special Lohri songs.
Singing and dancing form an intrinsic part of the celebrations. People wear their brightest clothes and come to dance the bhangra and gidda to the beat of the dhol. Punjabi songs are sung, and everybody rejoices. Sarson da saag and makki di roti is usually served as the main course at a Lohri dinner. Lohri is a great occasion that holds great importance for farmers. However, people residing in urban areas also celebrate Lohri, as this festival provides the opportunity to interact with family and friends.
