Holi is an Indian festival that takes place every spring. It's all about new beginnings — Holi welcomes the spring season and celebrates the end of winter. The Holi festival always falls on the day of the full moon. It's a two day holiday on which a bonfire is lit on the first day which is meant to be a cleansing ceremony that burns away all the bad and evil. The next day, directly after the full moon, is all about the Holi - festival of colors.
Various colors are thrown on each other, amidst loud music and drums to celebrate Holi. Like many other festivals in India, Holi also signifies a victory of good over evil. Each color also carries a meaning. Red symbolizes love and fertility; yellow is the color of turmeric, a powder native to India and used as a natural remedy; blue represents the Hindu God Krishna; and green is for new beginnings.
Join us for the Holi Festival of Colour this year and enjoy an afternoon of dancing, drinking, and splashing one another with colours of the rainbow!
