Come and jump the fire at Persian Society's Fire Festival on campus!


The Fire Festival, known as "Chaharshanbe Suri" in Persian culture, is a vibrant and ancient celebration observed on the eve of the last Wednesday before Nowruz, the Persian New Year. This festival traces its roots back thousands of years to Zoroastrian traditions, where fire symbolizes the victory of light over darkness. The Fire Festival embodies the spirit of renewal, hope, and purification, marking the beginning of the Nowruz festivities.


May the flames of the Persian Fire Festival illuminate our hearts with warmth, joy, and unity. Wishing you a night filled with laughter, love, and cherished memories as we celebrate together. Happy Fire Festival!
