Traditionally, Diwali is a festival of lights, but on Facebook, it’s a festival of shares, comments and likes. 

During this end-of-year festival, there has been a 1.07x increase in the sharing of video, photo and text posts by youth between the ages 18-24 and 1.09x increase for millennials who are between the ages 18-34.

Facebook is now like the new greeting card. Timelines are flooded with personalized festive greetings.

Diwali has always been incomplete without pictures. With Facebook, it is easier to share those captured memories with the near and dear ones, as well as with the world. There is a 1.44x increase in photo sharing and 2.76x increase in video sharing during Diwali than other days.
