First time to our Holi Party? Watch this blast from the past:
At Holi Hai, the Festival of Colors in Portland, we celebrate the coming of spring, the joy of friendship, and equality for all. All nationalities and ethnicities are encouraged to participate!
Holi Festival meets Bollywood party is a creation of our founder DJ Prashant who first experimented with bringing color powder inside the Chop Suey Nightclub in Seattle back in 2011. Every year since then it has sold out in advance. Make sure to grab your tickets & come prepared to get bedazzled at the wildest most colorful party in town, complete with that Bollywood flair.

║Guidelines @ E very JAI HO!║
Creating a safe & celebratory space is our number one priority at every event we host.
And we would love for you to be an accomplice of mine by greeting & treating everyone like you would like to be treated. With equality, mutual respect, and a big smile.
We know this does not apply to you because you are awesome but for the other people to whom it may be relevant, we have zero tolerance for bigotry, racist remarks, and generally reckless behavior including but not limited to fighting, inappropriate touch, etc.
Anyone found engaging in such behavior will be thrown out at once & may never be able to attend our dance parties again.
If you see something, say something by bringing it to the attention of the venue staff or me directly.
