A Dum Dum and North Fringe pandal hopping walk
Three pujas in Dum Dum and North Fringe have confirmed positions — enough to walk between in one evening. Add them all and let the planner order the walk.

Why this walk works
This is a corridor, not a cluster. Distances between pujas are real and the roads carry airport traffic; use the metro to Dum Dum and walk out from there.
Of the three pujas this site lists in Dum Dum and North Fringe, three have a confirmed position. Those three are what is below, because a walking route made of unconfirmed positions would send you to the wrong street with complete confidence.
How to run it
Add every puja below to your route, then open the Route Planner. It will order the stops from wherever you start and draw the walk between them, so you are not deciding the sequence in the middle of a crowd.
Give yourself twenty to forty minutes per puja on a peak night — most of that is the queue and the walk, not the pandal. On Chaturthi or Panchami, or before ten in the morning, the same list takes about half as long.
Police one-way plans are in force across the busiest neighbourhoods from Saptami onwards, and they change the walking direction rather than just the traffic. If a barricade sends you the long way round, take it — the planner's line is the distance, not the instruction.
The rest of the neighbourhood
Every puja this site lists in Dum Dum and North Fringe has a confirmed position, so this walk is the whole neighbourhood.
Using this list
Tap Add to route on any puja below and it joins your route plan. The Route Planner orders your stops, draws the walk between the ones whose positions are confirmed, and keeps the list on this device between visits — so you can build the evening at home and follow it on the street.
Nothing on this page describes a 2026 theme, a timing or a crowd level, because no such thing has been published for these pujas. Where the site knows something it says it; where it does not, it leaves the line blank rather than filling it. A pandal listing with an invented opening time is worse than one with no opening time at all.
Names come from the PujoKolkata master dataset, which is the editorial source of truth for what these pujas are called, which neighbourhood they sit in and how they are organised. Coordinates come separately, from two sources: the IndianOil–Kolkata Police Puja Guide, and community-curated puja maps of the city. Where both know a puja the guide wins, and where a position is only roughly known the puja page says so. Nothing here is geocoded from an address or a postcode: a pin derived that way looks exactly as real as a true one while sending you to the wrong street.
If a puja you know is missing, or something here is wrong, it is a gap in the dataset rather than a judgement. The list is rebuilt from the source on every deploy, so a correction there appears here automatically.
