The Many Faces of Holi in London 2025: From traditional to trendsetting

As of the 2021 census, there were around 463,500 Hindus in Greater London, making up over 5% of London's population, and while Holi is traditionally a Hindu festival, an even wider demographic is expected to join in the celebrations.

Events are happening all over the city to mark the Hindu festival that celebrates spring, love, and new life and the victory of good over evil, many of which can be found on event marketplace, Eventbrite.

From Thames sunset cruises featuring Bollywood beats to neon-infused raves, Eventbrite lists London Holi events for every demographic. Classical dancers perform alongside dhol drummers, while family-friendly park celebrations happen just miles from color-drenched dance parties.

What makes 2025 particularly noteworthy is the creative reimagining of the festival: craft workshops teaching participants to create festive bunting, dance classes culminating in "Holi Discos," and regionally-specific celebrations showcasing the distinct Holi traditions of Rajasthan and Vrindavan.

Wherever you are in London, there should be a chance to celebrate Holi. With events on Eventbrite spanning from central Westminster to suburban Hounslow, and even reaching nearby towns like Windsor and Folkestone, it is a truly a region-wide cultural celebration and a testament to how firmly this Hindu spring festival has established itself in the British cultural calendar.
