The Indian Community in Malta and Maltese friends are celebrating spring with Holi today - a festival of colour to welcome the new season - at the consulate in Sta Venera.
Some 200 people of all ages, some in traditional colourful costumes, splashed each other with coloured powder as they jumped and danced and turned the day into a celebration of fun.
Participants will now stop briefly for lunch and continue with their celebrations in the afternoon.
