Holi Festival at Bishop Ranch

Leave a comment

The FREE family-friendly, colorful festival of Holi will be celebrated on Friday, March 27th 2020. Holi is an ancient Hindu festival from India that celebrates the beginning of spring. Participants throw brightly colored powdered pigments on each other as a way to commemorate the vibrant, abundant colors of springtime and say farewell to the long winter. It’s beautiful, messy and most of all, fun!
There will be activities for the whole family including face painting, henna tattoo artists, professional Bollywood dance performances, and live music from Dhol Drummers, all hosted by America’s best Desi MC Sunny Moza. The Curry Up Now food truck will be onsite.
Don’t forget to bring a pair of old clothes (white works best with the colored powder), the family, and join in this exciting family event. There is also plenty of free parking onsite.
Questions? Call Bishop Ranch Marketing at 925.543.0100.
