Not Telling
Hi GoldenGarms and thank you for replying to this post.
This year (2010) diwali official celebration date falls on 5th november, with the 26th october for 2011, 13th november for 2012, 3rd november for 2013 - all depending on the hindu lunar calendar in the western hemisphere.
According to my interpretation after some further readings, rightly or wrongly I believe the third day is Diwali, and the forth day being `New Years Day` in the hindu calendar, this also co-incides with your financial new year!
It looks like my initial concerns regarding justification for 1,00am finish for Diwali firework celebrations are or maybe unfounded, although a 1,00am finsh on all five days surely can`t be justified on the grounds that the ending and beginning of one year into another technically falls on two days!
Also, are there any listings for Diwali events around the UK that you know of?
"Saal Mubarak" for next month
Thanks crystal palace fireworks
It depends on where you're from, actually a mistake in my post is that I celebrate 6 days (there's an extra day before the 5 you read about), so it is the fourth and fifth day for Diwali and New Year's respectively for me, but third and fourth for others.
Don't worry, I was only joking about having the firework legislation amended to cover all the days of Diwali, although I wouldn't complain if it was
I know Neasden Temple usually has a display and i thinks there's one in the Watford temple, I'd assume Leicecster and Birmingham would have some good displays too.
