Kick off Diwali in the D week with a warm community gathering at Detroit Shipping Company. We’ll open the evening with music and good vibes, share a few brief remarks, and come together for a dua lighting ceremony at dusk (around 6:42 PM)—a moment of reflection, unity, and light for the city we love. After photos, we’ll roll straight into a Detroit Lions Watch Party with the game on the TVs and live DJs keeping the energy up throughout the night.
