Which Caribbean country hosts the annual Divali Nagar exposition in Chaguanas?

The Caribbean country that hosts the annual Divali Nagar exposition in Chaguanas is Trinidad and Tobago.

Divali Nagar, meaning “City of Divali,” is an annual exposition of Hindu and Indo-Trinidadian culture held at a permanent site in Chaguanas, a borough in central Trinidad. It combines religious presentations with music, dance, food, educational programs, craft displays, and cultural performances, making it one of the most prominent Indian-Caribbean celebrations in the region.

The event began in 1986 in the car park of Mid Centre Mall. It later moved to a permanent location on the John Peters Road Extension near the Uriah Butler Highway. The National Council of Indian Culture organized the exposition, which typically runs for about a week before Divali and ends on the night before the holiday.

Chaguanas is not a separate country or island. It is a municipality in Trinidad, one of the two main islands of the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago. Jamaica, Guyana, and Suriname also have South Asian communities and Diwali celebrations, but they are not the country associated with this exposition.
