What is Holi?

Also known as the Festival of Colours, Holi is a traditional Hindu festival.  Celebrated annually according to the Hindu calendar, this festival signifies the triumph of good over evil and change of seasons.

Along with enjoying the company of friends and families, it’s also traditional to throw dry, coloured powder, splattering people head to toe in bright colours! This is one of the most fun elements of Holi’s celebrations and one we look forward to bringing to Delaray.

Coloured powder for the throwing of colours will be provided at this event and we warmly welcome all to join in the fun!

****************************

Attendees please note…

Due to the nature of this event, attendees are encouraged to wear old clothes as some colour staining may occur.

Attendees are asked to avoid entering Club Delaray once colours have been thrown.

A professional photographer will be attending this event to capture images for use in future marketing. Please advise our photographer if you do not wish your picture to be taken.
