The ideal time to visit the Srimanta Sankaradeva Kalakshetra in Guwahati, Assam, is during the winter months, which span from November to March. During this period, the weather in Guwahati is pleasant with cool temperatures that range from a minimum of 10°C to a maximum of 20°C. Such conditions are perfect for exploring the cultural complex and enjoying the outdoor activities without the discomfort caused by the severe heat or monsoon rains. Additionally, the winter season coincides with a number of festivals in Assam, providing visitors with a fantastic opportunity to witness the vibrant local culture and traditional celebrations.
Another significant time period to consider is during Bihu, which takes place in January (Magh Bihu), April (Bohag Bihu), and October (Kati Bihu). Among these, the Bohag Bihu or the Assamese New Year, often celebrated in April, sees the Kalakshetra come alive with cultural performances, exhibitions, and traditional Assamese festivities. Visiting during this festival provides a unique and immersive experience. However, it is important to book accommodations early as this is a peak tourist season and places tend to fill up quickly. The cool evenings and the festival atmosphere make this season another splendid time to experience the heart of Assam's cultural heritage at the Srimanta Sankaradeva Kalakshetra.
