Holi engulfs India and Nepal with 1 billion participants throwing 50,000 tons of colored powder annually, celebrating spring’s arrival over a single day. The celebration costs each reveler $10 on average, making it 80% cheaper than Diwali’s family outlay of $200. Transcending caste barriers, Holi’s participation rate is 60% higher than the typical festival average, though its daily crowds of 100,000 per city still trail Rio Carnival’s 2 million in density.
