Navaratri 2025 Guide: Best Garba Nights In Ahmedabad, Surat, Rajkot & Vadodara

As Navratri approaches, Gujarat comes alive with the vibrant rhythm of Garba — a traditional folk dance that blends devotion, energy, and community. Performed in a circular formation around a central clay pot with a lit oil lamp (garbha deep) or an image of the goddess Durga, Garba symbolises the divine feminine and the cyclical nature of life. Dancers move in unison, clapping and swirling to the beat, celebrating the triumph of good over evil. Rooted in centuries-old tradition, Garba is more than a dance — it’s a spiritual and cultural expression deeply woven into the fabric of Gujarat. Here’s where you can experience the most spirited Garba nights across the state during this year’s Navratri celebrations.
