Shubho Noboborsho

Poila Boishakh has been the traditional New Year festival in the state, with the new year referred to as the Noboborsho. The festival falls on 14 or 15 April, as West Bengal follows its traditional Bengali calendar.The festival is celebrated with colorful processions, local handicrafts, fairs, delectible Bengali cusine and family time. The traditional greeting for Bengalis in the new year is শুভ নববর্ষ "Shubho Noboborsho" which is literally "Happy New Year".
