Holi in Pushkar has a reputation that precedes it, streets and ghats erupting in colour, music spilling out of every corner, a genuinely electric, slightly chaotic energy that pulls travellers in from across the globe every year. If that sounds like a lot, there's a quieter way to catch the same spirit: celebrating Holi from a desert camp Pushkar instead.
Looking for a Pushkar Holi package? Ours covers the whole day, your stay in a tent or cottage, meals, a safari, a spot at Holika Dahan the night before, and colour play out on open ground the next morning, all bundled into one easy booking.
Pushkar is also home to popular private Holi eventsand Psytrance Festival such as HoliPurim, Svana, Sunburn Holi Events, and Rang Festival Pushkar, held on the town's outskirts with DJs, live music, and organic colours for a more modern celebration. Dates and venues change yearly, so it's worth checking current details before planning.
What it looks like at the camp: The same colour, the same music, the same joy, but with room to actually breathe. We build our celebration around open dune space, a proper bonfire, and cultural performances, a real option if you're travelling with kids, older family members, or you simply want the festival without wading through dense crowds.
There's also something genuinely striking about Pushkar Holi against a desert backdrop specifically, coloured powder thrown against open sand and pale dunes reads completely differently than it does against city streets, and by evening, once everyone's washed up and the bonfire's going, it settles into the same warm, celebratory feeling as any other night at camp, just with a much more colourful afternoon behind it.
A few safety tips for women joining the colour play:
Wear clothes you're comfortable moving in and don't mind ruining
Carry pepper spray and wear protective goggles if colour in the eyes worries you
Stick together in a group rather than wandering off alone
Tie your hair back and oil your skin and hair beforehand, so colour washes out easier afterward
Book early; Holi is one of Pushkar's busiest stretches after the Pushkar Camel Fair, and rooms go fast
