RIA Diwali Sparklers Party

Of all the festivals celebrated in India, “Diwali” is one of the most glamorous and important. Its magical and radiant touch creates an atmosphere of joy and festivity. It is a festival of lights symbolizing the victory of righteousness and the lifting of spiritual darkness. It celebrates the victory of good over evil - and the glory of light.

Our diverse community provides a wonderful opportunity to share cultural traditions of our neighbors. Redmond Indian Association is pleased to add Sparklers Party to this year's Diwali celebrations in our community. The sparklers signify celebration of Diwali as well a way to drive the evil away. 

This event is open to ALL and you don't need to buy any new ticket or need to have ticket to the RIA Diwali on 25th October. Join the happy festival, even if you missed the tickets to our main event on 25th October. We are organizing this to to bring the spirit of this festival to our community, let our kids better enjoy and better relate to the festival of lights. 

RIA is providing free sparklers and would distribute them in an effort to ensure all families get the sparklers. Given the limited quantity of sparklers, we cannot guarantee that sparklers will be available for the length of this event.
