Bishop Ranch’s annual Holi event, billed as the East Bay’s largest celebration of the Indian spring festival centered on “rhythm, color and community connection”, returns to San Ramon this weekend.
The family-friendly event, highlighted by the traditional tossing of pigmented powder, is moving to a new location with Bishop Ranch this year: 2700 Camino Ramon, across from City Center and near the corner of Camino Ramon and Bishop Drive.
“Holi is one of the highlights of our year – a celebration of the changing season that brings families and neighbors together,” said Jeff Dodd, senior vice president at Sunset Development, which owns and operates Bishop Ranch.
“For over 15 years, it has grown into an even more vibrant and meaningful tradition, strengthening our community,” Dodd told DanvilleSanRamon. “As we begin building homes at Bishop Ranch, creating opportunities like this for families to connect and experience different cultures is more important than ever.”
With admission $10 (kids 10 years old and younger are free), the festival includes complimentary henna art; selfie stations; live dance, drums and DJ entertainment; food trucks selling meals, drinks and treats; and colorful Holi powder for purchase, organizers said.
The event is set to run from 2-4 p.m. Sunday (April 12). For more information, go to bishopranch.ticketspice.com.
