Diwali, also known as the Festival of Lights, is one of the most widely celebrated holidays for people of Indian descent living in India and around the world.

A five-day celebration falling in October and November, Diwali's name is derived from the Sanskrit word that translates to “row of lights" and the festival celebrates light triumphing over darkness, good over evil and knowledge over ignorance. In many Indian regions, it's also celebrated as the start of the New Year.
