ISKCON Girgaum Chowpatty Temple organizes the two-day Lord Jagannath Rath Yatra at Shivaji Park starting July 17.

The Rath Yatra returns after a several-year gap due to past logistical challenges with peak monsoon season.

Day 1 schedule includes Mahaprasadam lunch, Maha Arati, and the grand procession from Shivaji Park through Sena Bhavan, Maruti Mandir, Portuguese Church, and Senapati Bapat Circle.

Evening events feature a Mangal Yagya, Chappan Bhog offering, and a spiritual discourse by H.G. Radhanath Gopinath Prabhu.

Free Mahaprasadam dinners are served on both days, with cultural performances and discourses continuing on July 18.
