It’s that time of year again for Holi, also called the Spring Festival. It is known as the festival of colors, and traditionally played in India every year to mark the beginning of the spring season.
Here in America, at Radha Madhav Dham, Holi is played in the same style as it is in Braj district of India – with the same colorful, playful, family-filled fun and devotion. Each spring the Austin Community looks forward to this joyous celebration of Holi, the festival of colors.
This year, Holi play will be accompanied by a live band singing Holi songs from Braj to liven up the environment with uplifting music.
Come and play Holi this year at Radha Madha Dham on Saturday, March 3rd! Bring your friends and family to join you; although on this day, even strangers seem like friends during the joyous and energetic celebration of Holi.
While this event is FREE and open to the public, there is a $5.00 parking fee per car.
