The NA-RGB’s 60th Anniversary Committee has warmly invited devotees across North America to participate in the celebration of ISKCON’s 60th Anniversary, marking six decades since the founding of our movement by His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada.
The official launch of anniversary activities will take place on December 15, 2025, coinciding with the auspicious observance of Saphala (Krishna) Ekadashi. The launch will initiate a year-long series of commemorations that will continue through 2026.
As part of the celebrations, ISKCON North America is encouraging every temple, center, ministry, and office to host at least 3 events or initiatives to honor the 60th Anniversary. A curated list of event ideas has been prepared to assist communities in planning meaningful programs, and participants are invited to register their initiatives through the anniversary sign-up portal formally.
In addition to local observances, devotees are encouraged to participate in a National 60th Anniversary Gala planned for summer 2026 in New York City. Ticket sales for the gala will begin in January 2026, with opportunities available for both attendance and sponsorship. Further details will be shared in the coming months.
