Dev Deepawali is a very famous event celebrated every year at Varanasi. Dev Deepawali or more commonly called as Dev Diwali, is celebrated to mark the victory of Lord Shiva over demon Tripurasur (त्रिपुरासुर).  Thus Dev Deepawali Utsav is also known as Tripurotsav or Tripura Purnima Snan or Tripurari Purnima which is observed on the Kartik Purnima day.

Devotees take a dip in the holy water of Ganges on the auspicious day of Kartik Purnima and light earthen lamps or Diya(s) in the evening on Dev Deepawali day.
