We wish a happy Holi celebration to all of our students, colleagues, alumni and friends.
Holi, also known as the Festival of Colours, is one of the largest festivals on the Hindu calendar.
Every year, Holi is observed on the full moon day of the ‘Falgun’ month. In 2025, the festival will be celebrated on Friday 14 March. The eve of Holi, known as Holika Dahan or Choti Holi, was observed on Thursday 13 March.
Holika Dahan represents the burning away of evil, while Holi, celebrated the next day, signifies joy, love, and the arrival of spring. The colours of Holi symbolise unity, brotherhood, and happiness.
Much like Westminster, Holi can bring communities together, and we hope all of our students, colleagues, alumni and friends celebrate with much enthusiasm and joy.
