What is Holi

Holi marks the beginning of spring after a long winter, symbolic of the triumph of good over evil.

Holi is a popular ancient Hindu festival, also known as the “Festival of Colours” and the “Festival of Spring”.

Holi is celebrated at the end of winter, on the last full moon day of the Hindu luni-solar calendar month marking the spring, making the date vary with the lunar cycle.
