Singapore’s Little India to Celebrate 30th Anniversary of Deepavali Light-up
Deepavali or Diwali, which falls on Nov 6 this year, is an ancient Hindu festival and major cultural event in Singapore.
Visitors to Little India during this year’s Deepavali celebrations will get to learn the story behind the Hindu festival and take part in traditional Indian street games.
A free 40-minute storytelling session with local actors performing the symbolic triumph of light over darkness and good over evil on a miniature village set will take place at a field on Clive Street on Oct 20, at 7pm.
