Dishoom Diwali London, curated by Ryan Lanji

Our biggest event of the year

Our Diwali party returns to London, bigger, bolder, and brighter than ever. Bombay celebrates Diwali, the Festival of Lights, with its whole heart. Pinwheels, rockets, and ladi bombs splash across charcoal skies. Neighbours swap mithai and colour. Fun and laughter abound in honour of the triumph of good over evil, light over darkness. Connections new and old sparkle in celebration, regardless of race, background or beliefs and delight fills the air.

We invite you to join us for a magnificent night of feasting, intricate mehendi, music, dance, performance and pure New Year revelry curated by our dear friend, creative director and cultural producer, Ryan Lanji.

Our Birmingham Diwali event can be found here.
