At CBU, we recognize the importance of taking the time to celebrate special occasions with our students. October 24 marks the beginning of Diwali, India’s biggest and most important holiday of the year. Diwali is celebrated by followers of Hinduism, Jainism, Sikhism and Buddhism and is often considered the most unifying celebration in India.
Showing off cultural clothing is a big tradition during Diwali celebrations. Join us in the Boardmore Playhouse for a Diwali Fashion Show from 5:00pm-7:00pm, followed by music and dancing in the Pit Lounge from 7:00pm-10:00pm.
From everyone at Cape Breton University, Happy Diwali!
