Dhanteras 2026 falls on Friday, November 6 — the first and most auspicious day of the five-day Diwali festival. The word Dhanteras comes from dhan (wealth) and teras (the thirteenth lunar day of Kartik). Across South Asian tradition, Dhanteras is the single most auspicious day of the year to purchase gold, silver, and precious metals — welcoming Goddess Lakshmi into the home for the entire year ahead. At VJ Jewellers Ltd. / VJ Jewellers in Cityscape NE Calgary, we welcome South Asian families from across Calgary, Airdrie, Chestermere, and all of Alberta to choose their certified precious metals.
