What this day is
The festival of colors closes winter on the full moon of Phalguna. The evening before, Holika Dahan bonfires recall Prahlada's deliverance: devotion outlasting arrogance. In 2027, Holika Dahan is expected on the evening of March 21, with color play on March 22.
How families observe it at home
Families play with dry gulal in the yard or driveway, cook gujiya and thandai, and use the day for what Holi is traditionally for: setting grudges down. Many US temples and Indian associations host weekend color plays; check local listings if a weekday date is hard for school and work.
About this date
Pending verification: estimated from lunisolar reckoning; confirm against a published panchang (e.g. Drik Panchang) before launch.
Lunisolar dates can shift by a day between regional calendars and panchang editions. If this day matters to your family, confirm the local tithi with your panchang or temple before planning.
