🌈 FESTIVAL OF COLOURS - HOLI - SEE YOU SOON! 🎉
Good morning, everyone!
The Colour Festival kicks off at 11 AM, and we can’t wait to welcome you all for a day full of fun, music, and vibrant celebrations!
☀️ Weather Update: It’s set to be a lovely 20°C, so remember to slip, slop, slap, slide, and hydrate throughout the day!
💡 Friendly Reminder:
• While the colors wash off most clothes, they may stain pearl and other porous jewelry—so best to leave those at home!
• Pets are welcome, and the event is disability-access friendly.
• Our colors are 100% safe—made from food-grade arrowroot and corn starch with edible food color dye (non-toxic and skin-safe).
• the colors are available at our official colours stall near the stage and due to safety reasons outside colours are not permitted
Barkly Village will be closed off and the bus diversion is in place from 8 AM till 9 PM in the evening. The traffic is being diverted down Russell Street onto Cross Street and then onto Warleigh Rd.
