The commemoration of Diwali is the festival of lights, widely celebrated by South Asians around the world. Diwali is celebrated by a number of South Asian faiths, including Hinduism and Sikhism (Bandi Chhor Divas). During this time, houses are decorated with traditional diyas (candles) and Rangoli artworks (patterns on the ground created by coloured rice or powder).
Diwali encourages a strong sense of unity with communities sharing food and gifts among friends, family, and those in need. Fireworks displays are also presented in the community to highlight celebrations and show light triumph over darkness. Diwali is one of the most popular festivals in the South Asian calendar. Diwali means "row of lighted lamps" with light symbolizing the triumph of good over evil, prosperity over poverty and knowledge over ignorance.
