Holi Lafayette has become one of the most anticipated annual events. In preparation for Holi festival 2018, here’s a tribute video to the Lafayette Holi in Louisiana. Are you prepared to party this spring?
In the last few years the adoption of Holi in America has become increasingly widespread. While there are many imitations, few festivals seem to capture the true essence and tradition of Holi. The annual Lafayette Holi festival is a magnificent event full of energy, passion, and Louisiana party spirit. It is the best mixture of Cajun and Indian cultures combined in one celebration.
Lafayette Holi is organized by the Acadiana Indian Association and takes place in Girard Park. For more information, visit: http://www.lafayetteholi.org.
