Diwali Preparations in Fiji
In October, the Indo-Fijian community begins preparations for Diwali, the Festival of Lights, with cleaning, decorating homes, and crafting clay lamps. While Diwali often falls in late October or early November, the lead-up activities dominate the month, focusing on renewal and community bonding. This reflects the significant Indian diaspora in Fiji and their cultural retention.
