Diwali Events in Germany 2026

Diwali 2026 falls on Sunday 8 November 2026. Known as the festival of lights, it is celebrated across Indian communities with diyas, rangoli, sweets and new clothes. In Germany, Diwali parties, melas, cultural programmes and dinners run through late October and November, so on Brizz.me you can find celebrations in Frankfurt, Munich, Berlin, Hamburg and other cities on and around the main date.

Diwali is called the festival of lights because homes, temples and venues are lit with rows of diyas (oil lamps) and decorated with colourful rangoli, symbolising the triumph of light over darkness. Families exchange sweets, wear new clothes and gather to celebrate. In Germany, cultural associations recreate these traditions at Diwali melas, dinners and cultural nights, which you can discover and book on Brizz.me across cities like Frankfurt, Munich and Berlin.
