“Holi” is an ancient Hindu festival celebrated in India and Nepal, and is also known as the “festival of colors.” It is a celebration of the victory of good overcoming evil and the arrival of spring with the conclusion of winter. It is also a celebration where people meet and have fun, as well as reunite and let bygones be bygones. Similar to the American holiday Thanksgiving, Holi is a time to celebrate a good harvest.
Aside from being a national holiday in India, it is also a celebrated social event in the United States as well as in other countries. Other events that have been inspired from the Holi festival have arisen primarily in the USA and Europe where people get together at often company organized events to raise money for charities. There are also events known as The Color Run, Holi Run, and Color Me Rad organized by 5k run franchises that feature participants being doused in Holi colors!
