Everything you need before you come

Everyone is welcome. What follows is how to get here, when the doors open, and what to expect once you are inside.

Welcome

His Holiness Mahant Swami Maharaj is one of the most respected Hindu leaders in the world today. He is gracing London to bless the people of UK and Europe.

Everyone is welcome to visit BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir, London, to receive Swamishri’s darshan and blessings. No registration is required for entry.

Nevertheless, others are also welcome on this and other days. If the hall’s capacity is reached, overflow seating is available where visitors will be able to enjoy the programme on large screens.

Thank you for your cooperation. We hope you have a spiritually enriching experience.
