Vaisakhi is a Hindu and Sikh celebration dating back over 300 years, primarily in northern India, celebrating the spring harvest. It falls on April 13 or 14 each year, marked by various performances and festivities.

"Vaisakhi had been a harvest festival but took on a greater significance for Sikhs in 1699... Guru Gobind Singh... asked anyone who was prepared to die for their religion to step forward." - Vaisakhi's transformation in 1699 marked a significant moment when Guru Gobind Singh emphasized devotion to faith with a volunteer's sacrifice.
