Diwali is the Indian Festival of Light. It is held in late October or early November and celebrates the beginning of the Indian New Year. The celebrations last for five days. During the first day of Diwali, Rangoli patterns are made. These are put by the front door to welcome visitors.
On the third day, divas are lit and put around your home. These are little lights. Later in the evening, fireworks are lit. The fourth day is New Year’s Day.
The last day of Diwali is Bhai Beej. This is a special day for brothers and sisters.
After the five days the new year has begun.
