Toronto, Ontario, Canada, Oct. 05, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- As millions of people prepare to celebrate Diwali on October 24th, leading online travel agency CheapOair.ca is preparing for this annual celebration by sharing some of the top events and festivities taking place across Canada.
Diwali, also known as the ‘Festival of Lights’, is one of India’s most important annual celebrations. It celebrates the victory of light over darkness, good over evil and knowledge over ignorance. While the five-day celebration culminates on October 24, 2022, many families will take part in month-long festivities, prayers and gift-giving. The night of Diwali is generally celebrated with fireworks and houses decked out with lamps in an array of colours to welcome wealth and prosperity.
