Georgia's temples keep the full Hindu calendar: Maha Shivaratri, Ugadi and Sri Rama Navami in spring, Krishna Janmashtami and Ganesh Chaturthi in late summer, Navaratri, Dussehra and Diwali in autumn, and Karthika Masam into December. Temple-specific festival lists appear with each listing above. For this season see Karthika Masam 2026 in the USA, the top Karthika temples in the USA, Diwali in Atlanta and Diwali dates for Georgia.

Dates can differ from India by a day because tithis are calculated for local sunrise, and temples of different regional traditions (Telugu, Tamil, Gujarati, North Indian) may follow different calendars. Always check your temple's own announcement.

Researched on 10 November 2026 from official temple websites, the BAPS, ISKCON, Chinmaya Mission and ISSO directories, and established community organisations, with map listings used only as supporting evidence. Institutions are listed under the city where they physically stand, not the city in their name. We left out the former Hindu Temple of Georgia in Norcross, which closed around 2009-10, and a Monroe mandir known only from 2013-14 news reports. Spotted an error or a missing temple?
