Celebrated during the Hindu month of Magh (January–March), the Magh Mela draws millions of pilgrims from India and abroad. Devotees come to Prayagraj to perform Kalpavas, take the holy Shahi Snan, participate in spiritual rituals, and seek divine blessings.

The Magh Mela is a month-long spiritual fair celebrated in Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh. It aligns with the Hindu solar calendar, beginning on Paush Purnima and ending on Maha Shivratri. Lakhs of devotees set up temporary settlements called Kalpavasi camps, where they live a simple, disciplined, and spiritual life for one full month.

The roots of Magh Mela are mentioned in ancient scriptures like the Puranas, Mahabharata, and various Hindu texts that highlight the sacredness of the Triveni Sangam.

Historical & Mythological Significance of Magh Mela

The holy dip during Magh Mela is believed to multiply the benefits of spiritual actions due to the celestial alignment of planets. The Samudra Manthan legend also ties into the significance of the sacred bath, reinforcing the belief that the Sangam is the point where divine nectar (Amrit) fell on Earth.
