Names, timing, and observance notes

How do Holika Dahan and Rangwali Holi differ?

Holika Dahan is the Phalguna Purnima evening observance. Rangwali Holi, the festival of colours, follows it on the next day. The linked schedule lists both dates for 2031.

Why this date?

Rangwali Holi or Dhulandi is observed on Chaitra Krishna Pratipada, the morning after Holika Dahan on Phalguna Purnima. This keeps the color festival separate from the previous evening bonfire ritual.

For 2031, Samvat resolves the observance to Monday, 10 March 2031, with Krishna Pratipada, Chaitra. The public festival calendar uses an India-baseline Panchang; personal observance can vary by location and family tradition.
