Online sales are now closed, however tickets are available for purchase at the door.

Join Desi Roots Collective (DRC) for a Desi Holi Gathering — a vibrant, family-friendly celebration of Holi, the South Asian festival of colour, spring and renewal at the Pickle Factory on 8th March, 12 - 3pm.

Holi has always been more than just colour-throwing. It marks the changing of seasons, the softening of winter, and the coming together of communities through play, food and shared joy. We’re creating a welcoming space where people of all ages can experience Holi in a relaxed, inclusive and community-led way.

Expect gentle, playful colour-throwing (with natural powders), music to set the mood, crafts workshops for kids, live storytelling, desi snacks and food, and a DJ. More details to follow soon, so watch this space!

Tickets:
£7 low income
£9 standard adult tickets
£12 pay it forward
Under 16s free - but a free ticket must be booked.

No prior knowledge of Holi is needed — just curiosity, openness, and clothes you don’t mind getting colourful.

Come celebrate spring, colour and community with us!
