Durga Puja, one of the grandest festivals in India, particularly in West Bengal, is a time of devotion, culture and togetherness. It celebrates the triumph of Goddess Durga over the demon Mahishasura and has grown into a socio-cultural extravaganza that unites communities across the city through art, music and above all, food. Embracing this spirit, JW Marriott Kolkata aims to create an unforgettable festive journey that honours tradition while offering guests a modern, luxurious experience.

“This year, we are proud to curate a dining celebration that truly captures the essence of Durga Puja. Through Mahabhoj, JW Kitchen and Vintage Asia, we endeavour to bring people together in joy, indulgence and tradition while delivering the warmth and hospitality that JW Marriott Kolkata is known for,” 

Sunil Kumar, General Manager, JW Marriott Kolkata.
