About Us
Ahiritola Sarbojanin Durgotsab Samity is a traditional Durga Puja celebration in Ahiritola, North Kolkata, near the Hooghly river and Ahiritola Ghat. The Puja is known for its connection with the old neighbourhood culture of North Kolkata and its emphasis on traditional Bengali Puja traditions rather than only large-scale modern themes.
For 2026, the Puja is entering its 87th edition, according to current 2026 coverage. The Khuti Puja was held at Ahiritola Dolna Park on 16 July 2026. Current sources also describe the 2026 presentation as strongly connected with the enduring appeal of Sabeki, traditional Puja culture.
The current listed location is around 55-57 B.K. Paul Avenue, Ahiritola, Kolkata 700005, close to Ahiritola Ghat.

This Year's Special Attraction
Traditional Bengali Puja atmosphere and Sabeki heritage
Ahiritola's 2026 presentation places particular emphasis on the lasting appeal of traditional Puja culture. The committee's 2026 communication included the message “চাকচিক্য সাময়িক, সাবেকিয়ানার টান চিরন্তন”, highlighting the contrast between temporary glamour and the enduring attraction of traditional Puja.
A reliable final 2026 theme title is not consistently published across current sources, so it is better not to assign a specific theme name to the listing yet.
