Festival of Ridvan

in Explore > Calendar

Ridvan, also known as the Most Great Festival, celebrates Baha’u’llah’s time in the garden of Ridvan on the outskirts of Baghdad in 1863 when He publicly declared His station as a Manifestation of God. The Ridvan Festival is 12 days long and is also the time of year when Baha’is elect their governing bodies.

The Baha’i Festival of Ridvan: Day 12

This video was produced by Baha’i Teachings in honour of the Festival of Ridvan. It combines visual effects by Setareh Samandari and Habib Zagarpour with an original score by renowned composer Jack Lenz to imagine what the Twelfth Day of Ridvan could have looked like.

We’ve created a special collection dedicated to resources related to the Festival of Ridvan; it features articles, music, videos and more!

To see more videos produced by Baha’i Teachings, please visit their YouTube channel.

Lastly, we interviewed the Jack Lenz about his Feasts and Holy Days songbook that includes this wonderful piece of music. You can read the interview here: Baha’i Feasts & Holy Days Songbook – A Musical Initiative by Jack Lenz
