Hanuman Jayanti (Sanskrit: हनुमानजयंती, romanized: Hanumānajayantī), also called Hanuman Janmotsava, is a Hindu festival celebrating the birth of the Hindu deity Hanuman, one of the protagonists of the Ramayana and its many versions. Hanuman is regarded to be an ardent devotee of Rama, and is widely known for his unflinching devotion. He is revered as a symbol of strength. Hanuman Jayanti is most widely observed on the full moon of Chaitra.

Dates can vary by a day between regions and traditions.

Why does the date move?

Hindu festivals follow the panchang, a lunisolar calendar in which most festivals are tied to a particular lunar day (tithi) of a particular month. Because lunar months drift against the solar year and a leap month is periodically inserted, the Gregorian date of each festival moves within a few weeks from year to year — and regional traditions can observe the same festival a day apart.
