Phagwah is the famous Holi Festival in Guyana. In 2025,
Phagwah will be observed on March 13 and March 14 in Guyana in Caribbean. The Phagwah celebrations
in Guyana are observed mainly under the guidance of Guyana Hindu Dharmic Sabha.
Numerous activities are organized during the period.
Rama Krishna Dharmic Sabha Mandir in Barr Street Kitty,
Georgetown, hosts annual evening of Holi melodies – Holi Sangam (a week earlier)
Annual Phagwah Mela and Bazaar is held a week earlier before
the Phagwah day.
Chowtaal Sammelan, an initiative of the Guyana Hindu Dharmic
Sabha, is also being held in the Sabha’s Praants countrywide. Chowtaal gols or
groups from Mandirs in each region will converge at the various venues to share
in spirited singing reflective of the festival. There will also be beautiful
Phagwah melodies and pulsating tassa drumming.
