What Vasant Panchami is

Honours Saraswati, goddess of learning and the arts, and marks the first stirring of spring. Traditionally a day for beginning a child's education.

How this date was worked out

The rule: Panchami tithi of the Shukla paksha in purnimanta Magha, prevailing at madhyahna (midday). The date is derived from the panchang - the same computation that drives this site's daily pages. Note that the day is fixed by the tithi running during the observance window, not the one at sunrise; that is why several festivals land on a day whose sunrise tithi is something else entirely.

Regional variation

These dates are computed for New Delhi and follow the north-Indian (purnimanta) convention. Tamil, Bengali and Kerala traditions differ on several festivals, and a tithi boundary falling near a window edge can shift the day for a distant city. Check a local panchang before committing to a fast or an event.
