Holi Festival of Colours

Since it first launched in Germany in 2012, the acclaimed Holi Festival of Colours has become synonymous with unity, celebration, and, of course, colour. This year, the festival comes to South Africa, with a much-anticipated event taking stage in the heart of Johannesburg on August 23 at Bidvest Wanderers Cricket Stadium.

The event is expected to draw a huge following, as revelers prepare to unite under a cloud of multi-coloured paint powder from noon until late. Local and international music acts, a host of special features, top-of-the-line event planning, security, food and drink stalls and many other event highlights will also be par for the course over the duration of this full-day event.

Tickets start at R255, with early bird tickets available at R205 for the first 1 500 tickets sold. Packages and VIP tickets (R445) are also available, which include powder bags and other inclusive highlights.
