होली(洒红节) 在 🇸🇬 新加坡

Holi in Singapore is celebrated by the city-state's Indian community and has grown into a popular multicultural event. While not a public holiday, the Festival of Colors has gained visibility through organized community events that attract participants from all ethnic backgrounds.

The Little India area serves as the cultural hub for Holi celebrations, with Hindu temples holding special pujas and cultural programs. Community organizations like the Singapore Indian Association and various cultural groups host Holi events featuring color play, music, dance, and traditional food.

In recent years, large-scale Holi events organized at outdoor venues have become popular, drawing thousands of participants who enjoy throwing colored powder, dancing to Bollywood music, and sampling Indian street food. These events blend traditional Hindu celebration with modern festival culture, making Holi accessible to Singapore's diverse population.

Singaporean Hindu families celebrate at home with traditional rituals, preparing thandai, gujiya, and other sweets. The celebration reinforces community bonds within the Indian diaspora and provides an opportunity to share Indian culture with friends and colleagues from other backgrounds. The vibrant colors of Holi add a splash of festivity to Singapore's multicultural calendar.
