Marking the arrival of Spring, we all become kids again and go crazy about the Holi festival. Post Holika Dahan, the night passes by anticipating the most fun morning of a year. And the Holi 2024 is all about these pulsating moments and colourful desires to eat, dance and party hard till the evening. And talking of parties, my mind takes me to the Holi Celebrations in Goa, which is touted to be one of the most extravagant displays of this festivity.
Holi festival is called Shigmo, the arrival of Spring in Goa, and is one of the most vibrant feasts to be held in this party capital of India. From parades to effigies and troupes performing on the streets all day long, to a bounty of fun with Gulaal and Neel make the entire ambience teem with festive vibes, the Shigmotsav or Holi in Goa is one experience you would want to seal away in the treasure trove of memories.
