About this Darshan

Vaikunta Dwara Darshan is the most auspicious annual darshan at Tirumala, held for ~10 days around Vaikunta Ekadasi (typically Dec 30–Jan 8). Devotees pass through the Vaikunta Dwaram (the northern gate of the inner sanctum), believed to grant moksha. 70,000 free E-DIP tickets are available for the first 3 days; SRIVANI and SED quotas cover the remaining days.

వైకుంఠ ద్వార దర్శనం తిరుమలలో అత్యంత పవిత్రమైన వార్షిక దర్శనం. వైకుంఠ ఏకాదశి సందర్భంగా ~10 రోజులు నిర్వహిస్తారు. ఇక్కడ దర్శించడం మోక్షం ప్రసాదిస్తుందని నమ్మకం.
