Divali Nagar (Village of Lights) is an annual exposition of Hindu culture (broadly) and Indo-Trinidadian culture (specifically), it is associated with the celebration of Divali in Trinidad and Tobago. The exposition is staged at the Divali Nagar Site, located in the town of Chaguanas.

Although organised as a religious and cultural presentation, Divali Nagar has been criticised for the level of commercialisation associated with the endeavour.
