Happy Onam 2025: 30+ wishes and greetings to share with loved ones

Onam is one of Kerala's most beloved festivals, marking the beginning of the Malayali New Year and the homecoming of the king Mahabali. In 2025, the celebration will occur from Aug 26 to Sept 5

Onam, Kerala’s grand harvest festival, is one of the state’s most significant celebrations. Observed with great enthusiasm during the Malayalam month of Chingam, the 10-day festival is marked by traditions, feasts, and cultural festivities.

 

The Onam celebrations will take place this year from August 26 to September 5, 2025. The festival also commemorates the return of King Mahabali, the kind ruler who is known for providing his subjects with wealth and joy. 

 

Onam honours the unwavering spirit of unity and the state's rich cultural legacy. With its lavish Onasadya feast, elaborate pookalam flower decorations, and exhilarating vallam kali boat racing, the celebration embodies Kerala's ageless traditions while bringing people together.
