Govardhan Puja & Annakut Decoration Ideas: A Warm Setup for the Day After Diwali
Keep the Diwali glow going and make space for the Annakut offering.
Govardhan Puja is celebrated the day after Diwali, which falls around 9 to 10 November 2026. The exact date can vary by region and panchang, so confirm locally.
Many homes and temples prepare an Annakut, a spread of many foods offered to Krishna. The decor job is simple: a clean, warm puja corner and a table that can hold a lot of dishes. Follow your family's tradition for the rituals themselves.

1. A Krishna-themed puja corner
A Radha Krishna 3D Crystal Lamp or Standing Radha Krishna Lamp gives a soft focal glow. Add a White Flower Panel or Lotus Bud Net Backdrop behind it for a clean background.
2. Lamps and the offering area
Keep the offering area tidy. Use a Pooja Thaali Set for small items, and Golden Katori Diyas or Akhand Jyot Diya for the lamp. Keep flames away from fabric and out of reach of children.
3. The floor and the table
Lay a mat such as Noor Kamal Arch or Pushp Vatika where people will stand, and keep a clear table for dishes. A few Chaand Bati tealights add warmth.
Plan the table early
Annakut means many dishes. Clear a table or a low platform the evening before, and keep serving spoons and covers ready.
