Those photo's are the ones that I took last year - it was an excellent procession in Calangute!! Here's the link to my posting from that time.

I'm really looking forward to the celebrations again this year!!

GFF xx

As Diwali is on Nov 10th this year and that is a Saturday, I presume this is a holiday so does anyone know if the Saturday markets will still be taking place. This will be the only day I get to go to Ingos so will be gutted if its not on. Cheers.

I would expect the markets to go ahead, they did when Christmas and New Year fell across them, it seems nothing stops the markets!
