It’s not just Indians who love getting messy during Holi. The world loves it just as much as us. Here are a few festivals from around the globe that are as messy and as fun as Holi.
Citizens of Spain’s Ibi celebrate Els Enfarinats every year and go at each other with firecrackers, flour bombs and eggs. It’s like a less colourful, more hardcore Holi.
No prizes for guessing what this one’s about. Haro Wine Festival takes place every year in the town of Haro in the La Rioja region of northern Spain. It involves wine drinking competitions and contests and a Batalla de Vino (Battle of Wine) where wines are poured at each other from buckets. Aww yeah.
