Holi is the ancient Hindu festival of colours and love. It is celebrated in India and Nepal and many parts of South Asia. There are lots of Holi celebrations in the UK, organised by the large British-Hindu community. Recently, Holi has also inspired non-religious celebrations in Europe and North America, and its popularity is growing.
Holi marks the beginning of spring. It is a celebration of good winning over evil, and a time to give thanks for the good harvest. The dates change each year according to the full moon, but it is normally in March and sometimes in late February. People go outside and throw coloured paint powder at each other.

I love Halloween! It is an event full of excitment and fun. It takes place on october 31st, the weather is brisk and in some places we can see the first snow flakes of the season. In the USA it's not so chilly and people can be seen going out in warm clothes. In Canada for example, most of the costumes being sold are made of whool and usually covers a person head to toe.

My favorite festival is Carnaval, I love going out and partying with my friends. It takes place in february/march (the date is never certain) My sisters don't like it much, I guess they partied so much they got tired of it.
I love competitive carnaval as well, and the scoring is always very funny!
