Yelp Reno’s Diwaliwood is a dazzling fusion of Bollywood glamour and Indian cultural traditions. Enjoy an evening filled with dance, music, art, fashion, food, and community spirit. Now in its second year, this is Reno’s largest celebration of Indian cuisine, art, and culture, with a powerful purpose: raising funds to provide 60,000 meals for the Food Bank of Northern Nevada.
Guests can look forward to festive bites, chai, and Indian inspired drinks, Bollywood dance performances, fashion showcases, henna, rangoli, Ayurvedic experiences, and more.

Join the celebration for a suggested donation of $25 per person, collected at the door. Every dollar goes directly to the Food Bank of Northern Nevada, helping provide meals for neighbors in need. Space is limited, and you must register through Yelp to attend. Guests must be 21 or older to join the festivities.
