It is very beneficial to have a parallel circuit...

for example:

1. If one light in a parallel circuit goes out, the other light bulbs will remain lit

Whereas if a light in a series circuit goes out, all bulbs will go out

2. If not all light bulbs are needed on, you can turn them off with the remaining light bulbs staying on
