Braj is in its loudest, happiest mood again. The three-day Braj Holi Mahotsav kicks off today, 26 February 2026, across Deeg, Kaman and Bharatpur, with official event details now visible on the Ministry of Tourism’s Utsav portal, the government’s public listing for festivals and live-streamed cultural events.
Festival Listings, Routes, And What To Watch
Utsav’s listing places the mahotsav right in the “Today’s Event” spotlight, with venue pointers for Deeg Mahal, Kaman, and Bharatpur, so visitors can plan a neat three-town circuit without chasing scattered flyers.
On-ground, the flavour stays unmistakably Braj: rang, bhakti, sangeet, and Krishna–Radha storytelling through raslila-style performances, alongside community competitions and cultural evenings.
Quick Reality Check Before You Go
Braj Holi isn’t a “stand and watch” scene. Wear simple clothes, carry a scarf or eyewear, keep phone protection handy, and enter early if you want smoother movement during peak crowd hours. For arrivals, the official notes also flag connectivity via Agra (nearest airport) and Bharatpur (rail), which helps with quick hop planning.
