Kings Park will be bright and colourful for the upcoming Holi Festival on March 9.

Community organisation Women of Brimbank, which is dedicated to empowering women, fostering community connections, and welcoming new immigrants, is organising the event.

Founder and president Poonam Singh, who was awarded the Brimbank Citizen of the year in 2023, said the event is one she is proud to host.

“We are thrilled to organise the Festival of Colours, also known as Holi, a Hindu Indian festival,” she said.

“We extend a warm invitation to everyone to join us for this joyous celebration of culture and community.

“This is one of the many ways we engage with the community, free events such as this are aimed at celebrating diversity and bringing people together.”

The event promises to be a fun day out for the whole family, with food and fashion stalls, Bollywood music from a live DJ and a Bollywood dance performance.

The event will take place from 12pm to 3pm at 35 Kings Road in Kings Park.
