A Bat Mitzvah is typically celebrated when a young girl turns 12, the Jewish age of maturity for women. As for the actual celebration, it usually happens during the Shacharit (Morning) Service on Shabbat (Saturday).
Bat mitzvah ceremonies didn't become really popular until the 1970's. At that time, they were normally held during the Friday night Shabbat service only. Today, the majority of bat mitzvah ceremonies are held Saturday morning and the bat mitzvah girl reads directly from the Torah.
The plural for a bat mitzvah is a b'nai mitzvah
There is no specific tradition of lighting candles at a bat mitzvah ceremony. In fact, if the ceremony is held on a Saturday, candles cannot be lit because it is Shabbat.
