Sinhalese New Year, generally known as Aluth Avurudda (Sinhalese: අලුත් අවුරුද්ද) in Sri Lanka, is an important Sri Lankan holiday that celebrates the traditional Lunar New Year of the Sinhalese people in Sri Lanka. It is a major anniversary celebrated by not only the Sinhalese people but by most Sri Lankans. The timing of the Sinhala New Year coincides with the new year celebrations of many traditional calendars of South and Southeast Asia. The festival has close semblance to the Tamil New year, Thai New year, Bengali New Year, Cambodian New Year, Lao New Year, Thingyan in Myanmar and Odia New Year festival in India. It is generally celebrated on 13 April or 14 April and traditionally begins at the sighting of the new moon.
The sight of bright red Erabudu flowers and the sweet notes of the Koha (Koel bird) signals that Avurudu (Sinhala and Tamil New Year) is just around the corner. As the day draws near Sri Lankans begin their preparations to usher in the New Year. Loads of sweetmeats are prepared, and shared among family and friends on the New Year’s day signifying new bonds. Among the many flavours, kavum, kokis, dodol, Maa laddu and aasmi are some common sweets that you will love if you are in the Island this season.
