A centerpiece of the celebration appears to be a multi-tiered, towering installation adorned with illuminated Diya (earthen lamp) outlines, reflecting the festival’s core theme of light triumphing over darkness. Overhead, the airport’s ceiling is a mesmerizing canvas, with arches and long stretches covered in delicate, glowing string lights that create a canopy of festive brilliance. Other areas feature intricate overhead light installations, including rows of suspended, crystalline diamond-shaped lights and elegant arched structures lined with twinkling bulbs and purple accents.
Beyond the expansive public areas, even corporate spaces embrace the festive mood. One display features the words “Happy Diwali” illuminated above a decorative archway, beautifully complemented by a cascading border of pink and yellow lotus flowers. Another sophisticated indoor installation showcases large, contemporary golden arches framing a wall of sparkling fairy lights, accented with glowing white Diya motifs and flanked by decorative gift boxes.
The elaborate decorations, which also include brightly lit festive displays featuring geometric designs and modern art interpretations of traditional elements, underscore the airport’s commitment to offering a memorable and culturally rich experience.
