Holi festival

Holi: Festival of Colour Plaza Pop-up

Saturday,  May 4 | 2-4pm | Civic Plaza (14th and Lonsdale) | Free | No registration required

Join us as we celebrate colour and the arrival of spring. Holi is a North Indian festival where vibrant coloured powders are thrown into the air to represent new beginnings. There will be Indian food, crafts, Bollywood performances by SHIAMAK Vancouver and music by the talented DJ Roh. This is a messy, colourful, unique and wonderful experience that you will not want to miss! 

The powder used at this event is made with natural food safe ingredients, is gluten free, non-toxic and environmentally friendly. Wear clothing that you will not mind getting colours on (we recommend white so the colours will stand out!)
