The Brimbank colour festival returns for its second year, bringing colour, activity, and fun for all members of the family.

The event run by the Women of Brimbank is open to everyone, it is a cultural event and every age group is welcome.

The Women of Brimbank, established in 2013, runs a number of events and programs related to female empowerment, community gathering and support.

Women of Brimbank president Poonam Singh said there will be a lot of performances from different cultures, food, music and kids activities to get involved with at the festival.

Whether it be dancing to Bollywood beats or savouring festive treats, this event is the perfect way to come together as a community to celebrate the spirit of Holi, she said.

“There will be kid performances as well… we are giving them the space to perform to encourage them to participate in our cultural event and to share our culture,” Ms Singh said.

In addition, to this there will be live performances from singers and Bangla dancing.

Organised by the Women of Brimbank, this is an entirely female-run event. More than 300 people are expected to attend this year.

Brimbank women encourage any small businesses who wish to sell their products at the event to get in contact.

The event is on Saturday, April 5 at Cyril Clements Reserve.

Tickets are free and can be booked online at: www.trybooking.com/events/landing/1359205
