When, why and how it is celebrated - The main celebrations for Diwali 2024 will take place at the end of October

Barbie launched a special Diwali doll in collaboration with renowned Indian fashion designer Anita Dongre, just in time for the Hindu Festival of Lights. This marks the first time Barbie has teamed up with an Indian designer to honor a culturally significant event.

In celebration of the five-day Hindu festival of lights known as Diwali, Mattel has lit up the Barbie universe with its first-ever Diwali doll. The company’s launch of the doll comes a few weeks ahead of the holiday’s start in late October.
