INFO ABOUT DIWALI :

Diwali, Divali, or Deepawali is a major Indian and Nepalese festive holiday. What started as a harvest festival in ancient times, became associated with many legends and became a significant festival in Hinduism and all the faiths which originated in India - Jainism and Sikhism. Today it is celebrated by Hindus, Jains and Sikhs across the globe as the "Festival of Light," where the lights or lamps signify victory of good over the evil within every human being.

Okay, I'll admit it, I don't know what "Diwali" is?

Can you fill me in?

Its a predominantly Hindu festival, also known as the Festival of Light

You'll see celebrations with everything from candles, to colourful paper lanterns, to fireworks.
