Diwali in the Square

Known as the festival of lights, Diwali has religious significance for Hindus, Sikhs and Jains and is celebrated by many of the Capital's South Asian communities. The Mayor's free event has become a major fixture in London's calendar. The square will be lavishly and colourfully decorated with Indian music, theatrical displays and contemporary and traditional dances including the energetic Garba and Dandia. People of all faiths are welcome at this celebration of the victory of light over darkness.
