Cast Members throughout Walt Disney World have been celebrating Diwali, the five-day festival that symbolizes the victory of light over darkness, good over evil, and knowledge over ignorance.
Diwali, also known as the Festival of Lights, is one of the most celebrated holidays of the entire year for Hindus, Jains, Sikhs, and even some Buddhists.
While the specific date of this holiday changes each year due to the lunar calendar, it usually falls sometime in late October to November. This year, Diwali was on Monday, October 24th.
Disney College Program cast members at Disney’s Flamingo Crossings had the opportunity to learn about the customs and traditions of Diwali through an immersive panel session.
The highlight of the event included audience members who volunteered to dress up in traditional attire of vibrant colors, while trying some delicious Indian snacks and traditional sweets!
