Councillor Steve Evans, City of Wolverhampton Council's cabinet member with responsibility for events said: “After we were forced to cancel last year’s event due to the pandemic, it will be brilliant to see our city’s free Diwali celebration back in 2021.
“Everyone is welcome, this will be a fantastic event for all the family, featuring top quality entertainment and a fantastic firework display and we encourage everyone to come along and celebrate this important event in the city’s calendar.”
