About Holi
Holi, the Festival of Colours, is a Hindu spring festival celebrating the triumph of good over evil and the arrival of spring. It falls on the full moon of the lunar month Phalguna, usually in March. Revellers throw coloured powders and water, dance, and share sweets, with a bonfire, Holika Dahan, on the eve. Originating in the Indian subcontinent, it is now celebrated worldwide. As a lunar date it shifts within an early-spring window each Gregorian year. This countdown computes the main day with the Vikram Samvat engine shipped on the site.
Date rule: Phalguna Purnima, the full moon of the Hindu month Phalguna.
