This year, Gurpurab will be celebrated on Monday, November 30.
Guru Nanak Dev was a preacher of peace and harmony and his teachings are preserved in the holy texts, known as Guru Granth Sahib.

The celebration of Gurupurab or the Prakash Parv of Guru Nanak Dev begins 15 days before his birth anniversary. 15 days before the celebration, people start doing pheris.

Two days before the birth anniversary, Akhand Path is held in all the Gurdwaras and a day before the birthday, a procession or Nagarkirtan is organised.
