Vaisakhi is the ancient harvest festival in the Punjab region. It also marks the start of the new solar year and the end of the harvest season. Furthermore it has marked the creation of Kahsla. Vaisakhi normally falls on April 14th and sometimes on April 15th (once every 36 years). On these days Gurdawas are decorated and visited, there are parades, dancing and singing throughout the day, and many Sikhs choose to be baptized on this day.
Vaisakhi originated in Punjab but now it is celebrated in Europe, India and North America. Marches going from one temple to another occur in Europe. In North America some schools celebrate Vaisakhi.
