Festival of Light (847th)

"It is an honor to be here for this momentous occasion. The pride I feel for this planet cannot be put into words. Eight-hundred and forty-seven years ago Naboo joined the Republic. And tonight we celebrate that reunion."

- Sheev Palpatine giving his speech during the festival

The Festival of Light was a Naboo tradition, which celebrated the anniversary of the planet Naboo joining the Galactic Republic.

The eight hundred and forty-seventh Festival of Light was held during the Clone Wars, when a group of bounty hunters hired by Count Dooku attempted to kidnap Supreme Chancellor Palpatine.
