Bringing the joy of Holi to Jean Muir!

Holi is a vibrant Hindu "festival of colours", love, and spring, celebrated every year in March to mark the triumph of good over evil and the end of winter, welcoming a season of renewal and new beginnings.

What do the colours signify?

The bright colours of Holi symbolise the beauty of spring, new beginnings, and the renewal of relationships. Specific colours hold meaning:

• Red: Love and fertility
• Blue: Represents Krishna
• Green: New life

How is it celebrated?

Traditionally, celebrations begin with Holika Dahan bonfires, followed by Rangwali Holi, a happy day of playing with coloured powders (gulal), water guns, music and sharing traditional sweets like gujiya.
