Radhashtami Festival 2026


From Friday, September 18 until

Sunday, September 20, 2026
Dear friends of Goloka Dhama, dear seminar guests, dear devotees, It is with great joy that we invite you all to the Radhastami Festival.

Bhagavat dharma Prabhu will give the seminar “Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī” on the weekend of September 18-20.
This special seminar is dedicated to the sublime personality of Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī, her extraordinary love and boundless mercy, through meditation, lectures and kirtan. It is open to everyone—experienced practitioners as well as new bhaktas and interested guests.
On Saturday, September 19, the Rādhāṣhṭamī  Festival will take place, including traditional Abhisehka ceremony celebration. The seminar can be a valuable deepening of your knowledge and at the same time an ideal introduction to the festival. Of course, it is also possible to participate in the festival independently.
We look forward to welcoming you to Goloka Dhama.
