About this event
Holi is listed as a gazetted holiday on Monday 22 March 2027 in the holiday calendars for India, with the Holika Dahan bonfires lit the night before, on Sunday 21 March 2027. The festival's dates follow the lunar calendar (Phalguna Purnima), so the record is graded expected until the official calendar confirms them. Nowhere plays Holi like the Braj country around Mathura and Vrindavan, where the celebrations run for a week; Delhi, Jaipur and every city in the north have their own versions.
