Dev Diwali Dates

Hello
I searched the web and found only one post that gave the date of Dev Diwali. But I like to confirm...When does Dev Diwali begin and end? Is Dev Diwali as bit as festive as Diwali?

I'm also want to see the Pushkar Camel Fair in Rajasthan which runs from Ot 30 - Nov 2.

Thanks.

Dev Diwali is held on Kartik Purnima i.e. Full moon night of Kartika Month in Hindu calendar....

This year it is on 2 November.

Dev Diwali is celebrated in a big way in Varanasi. I think you would have to leave Ajmer on the 31st in order to see Dev Diwali in Varanasi.

Hello,
If Dev Diwali start from Nov 2, how long does it last?

What does everyone think would be a better event..the Pushkar Camel Fair in Rajasthan or Dev Diwali?
