holika dahan (the bonfire of holika) 🔥

​chotti holi (small holi)

​what is holi? 🌈

​holi is a major hindu festival that celebrates the arrival of spring and the victory of good over evil. it marks a seasonal reset, longer days, new energy, and a chance to let go of what felt heavy.

​traditionally, the night before main holi is holika dahan, where a bonfire is lit to symbolize burning negativity. the next day is all about colours, music, laughter, and community.

​over time, holi has become a celebration of joy, friendship, forgiveness, and starting fresh.

​basically, we light a bonfire, hang out around it, throw popcorn in the fire and symbolically burn the bad vibes. it comes from a hindu story about good winning over evil, but honestly, think of it as a very dramatic reset button.

​bring whatever you want to “let go of” this year. bad habits, bad decisions, bad situationships. we won’t ask questions.

​we’ll light the fire, laugh, chat, maybe say a short prayer, and enjoy the chaos responsibly.

​come for the vibes. stay for the fire.
