One of the biggest Indian festivals of the year was celebrated at Bunjil Place on Saturday 26 October.

Hundreds gathered for Diwali, known as Hindu’s Festival of Lights, which featured all the colour and sounds of India.

The evening was bustling with vendors serving a wide variety of cuisines, while crowds also had the chance to dance to some classical and Bollywood beats.

There were also various workshops including yoga, art, cricket, cultural stage performances, rides and more.

The night sky lit up with a magical fireworks display to cap off the day.
