ICONSIAM, together with the Indian Association in Thailand, is organizing the Diwali festival along the Chao Phraya River under the name “AMAZING THAILAND GRAND DIWALI FESTIVAL 2026.” The event begins today and will run through November 8.
Diwali is an important festival for Hindus and Indians around the world, usually held in the autumn season. The word “Diwali” means a row of lights, so people commonly light oil lamps and decorate their homes with lights to celebrate the triumph of good over evil and to welcome good fortune in the new year.
At this event, visitors can admire the beautiful decorations along the Chao Phraya River and experience Indian culture through activities held throughout the festival. The event provides an opportunity for Thais and tourists to learn more about the culture of Indians in Thailand.
The organization of this event shows that Diwali is receiving increasing attention from Thais and serves as an example of cooperation between the private sector and community organizations in promoting tourism and cultural diversity in Thailand.
