A Hatibagan–Hedua–Beadon pandal hopping walk

Dense, loud and rewarding. The pujas here sit close together along and just off the main roads, so a single evening covers a good number of them on foot. The market crowd and the pandal crowd are the same crowd after dark, so expect to move slowly.

Of the 13 pujas this site lists in Hatibagan–Hedua–Beadon, 13 have a confirmed position. Those 13 are what is below, because a walking route made of unconfirmed positions would send you to the wrong street with complete confidence.

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.

Every puja this site lists in Hatibagan–Hedua–Beadon has a confirmed position, so this walk is the whole neighbourhood.

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.
