When should I send a Makar Sankranti invitation?
About two weeks before the day.
Makar Sankranti
Name the day, the time of the meal, and whether kites or a til-gul visit are part of it.
Makar Sankranti is the harvest turning, when the sun enters Capricorn. Families exchange til and jaggery, fly kites, and eat a winter meal together.

A great way to invite people for Makar Sankranti is a short note with the civil date in mid-January and the hour you want people home. Say if the afternoon is kites, a meal of til and jaggery, or both.
Send it about two weeks ahead. Where your guests call this day by another harvest name, use that name and keep the date unmistakable.

The time, the address, and whether you are flying kites, eating together, or both.
