Independence Day 2026: How To Book Red Fort Celebration Seats

India celebrates its Independence Day every year on August 15.

In 2026, the country will celebrate its 80th Independence Day.

The Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, will raise the national flag at the Red Fort in Delhi and talk to the whole nation.

People who want to watch the ceremony in person need a special ticket.

Tickets can be booked online through the government's official website called Aamantran.

Bookers need a mobile phone to get a secret code and must carry an identity card.

Last year, things like cameras, umbrellas and water bottles were not allowed inside.

This year's celebration has a special theme called 'Yuva Shakti', which means the energy of young people.

The famous patriotic song Vande Mataram turns 150 years old this year, so it will be sung at the ceremony.

There is no big parade on Independence Day; the big parade happens on Republic Day in January.
