Southland
Get ready for colour, fun, and entertainment, with a colour rush event set to hit Invercargill.
Indian Community Southland Inc is thrilled to announce that Holi – Festival of Colours, in association with Southland Nepalese Society Inc, is coming to the Queens Park Gala Street Reserve.
Following the success of the Diwali event last year, ICS Inc will be celebrating Holi – Colour Rush on Sunday, March 1, from 11am until 3pm.
Holi is a Hindu festival that marks the end of winter and signifies the victory of good over evil. This festival is considered a day when all evils are destroyed, and good is restored.
Also known as the festival of colours, Holi is primarily observed in South Asia but has spread across the world in celebration of love and the changing of the seasons.
The festival of colour is a free, non-alcoholic family event, and there will be plenty for everyone to see, do, and experience. Auckland-based DJ Prudhvi, famed for Bollywood parties in New Zealand, will also be making an appearance.
The festival is filled with vibrant music, colours, and dance. Visitors can enjoy food stalls, powder colours for $2 each, and a fun family day out.
Indian Community Southland Inc. in association with Nepalese Society Inc. is inviting people from all over Invercargill and Southland to be a part of this festivity.
