Diwali at the Trafford Centre is from Friday 6 November to Saturday 7 November 2026, about 25 minutes' drive from Timperley. Free, no need to book, good for most ages, indoors.
Two days of Diwali at the Trafford Centre, spread across The Orient and the Main Dome. There's a Diwali festival market, a traditional Indian dance showcase followed by a dance-along workshop anyone can join, and a short immersive big-screen telling of the Diwali story. On the Friday afternoon there's a shared diya-lighting moment. Easy to fit around a shopping trip, and under cover.
