Lahore's administration has designated 523 locations for Eid prayers, including 47 major grounds and 476 mosques. Traffic diversions will be in effect from 5:00 AM to 10:00 AM on the main arteries. The city government warns of strict action against unauthorized gatherings.
The timing decision follows consultations with religious scholars and meteorological departments to ensure optimal conditions. Last year's attendance exceeded 2. 5 million across the city, a figure expected to grow by 8% in 2026.
Power Move: By announcing timings early, Lahore's administration gains operational leverage over crowd control—a playbook likely replicated nationwide. Expect digital tracking of prayer sites via government apps to become standard for future festivals.
