Posting to Instagram? Start with 5

Instagram announced in December 2025 that posts and Reels can use up to 5 hashtags. Because product rollouts and public documentation can change, confirm the current in-app behaviour before publishing. Pick the 5 that describe the post most precisely.

How to choose #lohri hashtags

Lohri content often centres on bonfires, family gatherings, music, Punjabi food and seasonal celebrations.

Name the bonfire, dance, food or family ritual shown, then add Punjab/Punjabi context where accurate.

Editor’s note: For Lohri, the cultural setting is part of the content. Use it to distinguish the celebration from generic winter-holiday posts.

Local, Indian and global context

  • Punjab and Punjabi diaspora communities use distinctive cultural and food vocabulary.
  • Regional/local: Lohri can look different across communities and locations. Use the specific tradition, event or activity shown in the post rather than assuming one format is universal.

What to avoid

  • Do not present a single Punjabi custom as universal.
  • Avoid reducing the festival to a generic party tag list.

Frequently asked questions

Should I use every Lohri hashtag on one post?

No. Choose only the tags that accurately describe the specific post. A compact, relevant set is easier to review and reuse.

Can I add the year to Lohri hashtags?

Yes, when the post is specifically about that year’s celebration. Remove the year from evergreen content so old tags do not become misleading.
