Bhogoli observes Dussehra (Vijayadashami) on Tuesday, 20 October 2026, along with the rest of Maharashtra.
The principal temple recorded for Chandgad mandal is Jagadguru Shankaracharya Math. No temple of this dedication is on record within Bhogoli itself.
Kolhapur's Mahalaxmi, called Ambabai here, is counted among the Shakti Peethas, and Navaratri is the temple's fullest season. The same shrine is known for Kirnotsav, when the setting sun's rays fall directly along the sanctum onto the idol on a few fixed days of the year.
By population, Bhogoli ranks #69 of 155 villages in Chandgad mandal.
