Diwali Indian Festival of Lights in King George Square

Diwali Indian Festival of Lights in King George Square

Diwali is a joyous celebration observed across Indian communities, symbolising the triumph of good over evil. Traditionally, people express their creativity through vibrant rangolis made with colours or flowers, illuminate homes and streets with lights and diyas, and share gifts, sweets, and savoury treats with loved ones.

This year, Brisbane’s Diwali Festival of Light will bring the community together at King George Square for a vibrant celebration of culture and unity. Visitors can enjoy cultural performances, traditional dances, delicious Indian sweets and snacks, fireworks, and activities for all ages. It’s a wonderful opportunity to experience one of the world’s most cherished cultural traditions and celebrate the light that connects us all.
