I'm looking for information about cultural festivals. Can you tell me about Diwali?

Diwali is the Hindu festival of lights, celebrated over five days in autumn. It's a time for fireworks, decorations, and spending time with family and friends.

That sounds beautiful. What's the significance of the lights in Diwali?

The lights in Diwali symbolize the victory of light over darkness and good over evil. People light diyas, candles, and fireworks to illuminate their homes and streets.

I'd love to experience Diwali someday. Are there any big Diwali celebrations in the United States?

Yes, many cities in the US have large Diwali celebrations, especially those with big Indian-American communities like New York City, Los Angeles, and Chicago. You can also check with local Indian cultural organizations for events and festivities.
