Generalizing the one-parameter case, we prove that the orbit of a point on a compact nilmanifold X under a polynomial action of $\mathbb{Z}^{d}$ by translations on X is uniformly distributed on the union of several sub-nilmanifolds of X. As a corollary we obtain the pointwise ergodic theorem for polynomial actions of $\mathbb{Z}^{d}$ by translations on a nilmanifold.
