Firefly Festival 2024

Question 1: When does the Firefly Festival Mumbai begins?

It is generally held in May last week and the first few weeks of June each year in Maharashtra, India. The fireflies forest festival's schedule is announced each year in May. Firefly watching season is generally in June, but the festival is held to celebrate this phenomenon for a few days. Weather plays a vital role in the development and active life of fireflies. The best time to watch fireflies is the period just after the first or the second rains of the monsoon season.

We usually see fireflies premonsoon in the Sahyadri. Once the rains begin, fireflies die after mating. Firefly avoids light pollution, and there is a lot of pressure on their habitat from development in the forest area.
