PRLog (Press Release) - Mar 04, 2010 -
On March 13th  , 2010 New York City will celebrate HOLI in a grand fashion……IN GROUP invites you to Rang Barse on Peking Ship the most festive celebration in New York City, and the only one of its kind! This event is held annually on Peking, a 377 feet long ship docked at Pier 16 at New York City’s South Street Sea Port.  

Celebrations on board Peking Ship are from 12 noon to 3:30 pm. At the event guests have the entire main deck to dance, engage in Holi festivities- play with bowls of vibrant gulaal (color powder) scattered around the ship.  A specially appointed dhol (drum) player and highly acclaimed DJ will churn out beats that would make even people with two left feet charge into the party with gusto! A talented local bollywood troupe that spiced up the event last year will return to add an additional zing to this festive atmosphere.  Scrumptious savory appetizers and drinks will be served throughout this event.

Rang Barse on Peking ship attracts a very chic and sporty crowd. The 2009 event was sold out five days before the event date and guests included people from as far as Pennsylvania and Connecticut.  This time around tickets have been flying off the shelves and IN Group feels confident to repeat their success and have a bigger and better event. Tickets are available at www.desiclub.com and www.sulekha.com.

In India, Holi marks the commencement of Spring and is a fun-filled occasion that brings people together from everywhere…typically it includes water, gulaal, lots of food and music…people greet each other in the spirit of camaraderie and bonhomie by showering color on one another
