Holi Festival 2010
Hi all,
I am planning a trip to India/Kolkata around the 2010 Holi festival. I have read somewhere that the festivities will be held around the 1st March. Does someone know exactly when they take place? Starting on the 1st March? 28 feb? I will be flying from Bangkok and will book my flight soon, and obviously I don’t want to arrive 1 or 2 days too late… Thanks, |
