Diwali spans five days and usually falls in late October or early November. This year, Dhanteras will mark the official start on October 29 – November 3, with the main celebrations taking place on October 31 and November 1.

Diwali, the 'festival of lights,' is celebrated by over a billion people worldwide across various faiths, including Hindus, Sikhs, Jains, and Buddhists. While its origin stories vary, they all share a common theme: the victory of good over evil and light over darkness.

To celebrate, please join us in lantern making, a Diwali themed speed friending session, light event on campus, and an organised trip to Trafalgar Square - plus a range of events hosted by our student groups, including dance workshops and henna art.
