Celebrate Happiness, Prosperity & Joy in Aylesbury

You are invited to Aylesbury’s Festival of Lights on Saturday 13 November 2021

This community celebration will be held in the refurbished rooms and delightful walled garden of Discover Bucks Museum, so come along and join in. We promise a colourful blend of music, dance, stalls and mindful activities.

The Festival of Lights is a free community event, established by Holy Cow Community in partnership with Aylesbury Town Council. It is inspired by Diwali, a Hindu festival and everyone is welcome.

Aylesbury’s Festival of Lights

The first Festival of Lights community event was held in 2017 and we built on its success in 2018 and 2019. Lockdown didn’t knock us back, but it did make us think creatively and technically! We overcame the restrictions with a wonderful digital festival which attracted an amazing 9,500 views. You can view highlights of these events on the Holy Cow Community YouTube channel.

We are delighted to return with an actual event in 2021, but with everyone’s wellbeing in mind, things have been scaled back. Just one venue, but there is still plenty to get involved in.
