A festival of colour and connection

More than colour
in the air.

Holi carries traditions of spring, renewal and shared joy from South Asia into communities around the world.

Almere Holi Festival 2027 is being developed as a welcoming meeting point: a place where culture is treated with respect and people can experience colour, rhythm, food and collective celebration together.

Night Beats brings its own language to the programme—electronic music, emerging talent and genre-crossing collaboration—while keeping the festival rooted in human connection.

One city.Many colours.Every generation.Together.
