Karwa Chauth 2027 by province
Keeping the vrat in Canada
The vrat itself is unchanged abroad: sargi before dawn, the nirjala fast through the day, the evening puja with the karva, and the moon viewed through a sieve before the fast is broken. What changes is the clock. Follow the local timings above rather than timings published for Indian cities, since the moon rises over Toronto at its own hour.
Frequently asked questions
When is Karwa Chauth 2027 in Canada?
Karwa Chauth in Canada is on Monday, 18 October 2027. Canada keeps Karwa Chauth on the same date as India, Monday, 18 October 2027, but the timings are entirely different: moonrise in Toronto is 08:05 PM local time, against 07:35 PM in New Delhi.
What time is moonrise for Karwa Chauth in Toronto?
Moonrise in Toronto on Monday, 18 October 2027 is 08:05 PM local time, with Vancouver at 07:39 PM. The fast is completed only after the moon is seen in your own city.
Why is the date or time different from India?
The vrat ends at your local moonrise, and the tithi is read at your own sky. Time zones and longitude shift both, which is why devotees abroad should follow local timings rather than Indian ones.
When can the fast be broken?
After the moon is sighted in your own city, the moon is viewed through a sieve, arghya is offered, and the fast is broken. Use the moonrise time in the table above for your city.
