Villawood’s Alamora Diwali celebration was a resounding success, with more than 800 mums, dads, kids and grandparents enjoying a fantastic array of light, colour, dance, fireworks, music and food under our Feronia Park big top at Tarneit.
The second Diwali festivity at Alamora, people loved the henna tattoos and face painting, the fire twirling and floodlights, sand art and stage steam blasts, Bollywood and belly dancing.
The biggest celebration in the Hindu calendar, Diwali celebrates the symbolises the inner light that protects us from spiritual darkness. Alamora’s Diwali decorations and layout were first class with velvet sequinned drapes in striking purple, yellow and aquamarine, table-top candles by the score, stringed, coloured globes above proceedings and roaming lights overhead.
Fire-dancer Mariko welcomed arrivals with flashing streams of colour reflected by the remarkable traditional dress of hundreds of people. Topping the night out was a brilliant fireworks display lighting up the night in a breathtaking sky-show.
