Holi is celebrated on the Purnima (full moon day) of the Hindu month of Phalguna. In 2026, the main festivities will take place in early March.
| Holika Dahan (Chhoti Holi) | March 3, 2026 | Tuesday |
| Rangwali Holi (Dhulandi) | March 4, 2026 | Wednesday |
The ritual of Holika Dahan must be performed during a specific window to ensure spiritual benefits and the removal of negative energy.
* Holika Dahan Muhurat: 06:22 PM to 08:50 PM (on March 3rd)
* Duration: 2 hours and 28 minutes
* Purnima Tithi Ends: 12:23 PM on March 4th
Beyond the splashes of color and water, Holi carries deep mythological and seasonal significance:
* Triumph of Good over Evil: The bonfire of Holika Dahan celebrates the legend of Prahlad, a devotee of Lord Vishnu, who survived the fire while the demoness Holika was consumed by it.
* Arrival of Spring: It marks the end of winter and the beginning of the harvest season, celebrating fertility and the blooming of nature.
* Social Harmony: Holi is known as the "Festival of Love." It is a day when people forgive past grievances, mend broken relationships, and celebrate regardless of age, caste, or creed.
