The two anchor rituals are the Mangla aarti in the morning, generally held around 6:00 AM soon after the temple opens, and the Sandhya aarti in the evening, commonly listed around 6:30 PM. One source places the evening aarti closer to 7:00-7:15 PM, so if the aarti is the reason for your visit, confirm the current time at the gate.
Between the two aartis the deity receives bhog through the day. During Navratri, Patotsav and Khodiyar Jayanti the ritual schedule expands with additional pujas and larger prasad distribution, and aarti times can shift to accommodate the crowds. Arriving 15-20 minutes early helps you find a spot within sight of the sanctum before the queue builds.
