By mid-afternoon in Ras Al Khaimah, weekends usually mean beach walks, café hopping, or quiet family lunches. But on 7 March, the coastline swaps calm for colour as Color Splash 3.0 turns the shore into a full-scale Holi celebration. Laughter mixes with music, clouds of pink and yellow rise into the sky, and strangers become dance partners.
This is Holi, RAK style.
Hosted at White Beach, Al Hamra Residence, Color Splash 3.0 is the emirate’s only authorised Holi festival taking place during the actual holiday week. That timing matters. Across the UAE, cultural festivals are becoming experiential weekends, where families look for outdoor events that blend tradition with modern entertainment. Short drives. Long memories.
Running from 2 PM to 10 PM, the eight-hour beachfront celebration brings together premium organic colours, curated kids zones, and live DJ sets in a setting designed for comfort and flow. High-energy performances from Dubai favourites DJ Buddha, DJ Tripty, DJ Tushar, and DJ Chirag keep the tempo going, while traditional Dhol and Nagada add a cultural heartbeat to the afternoon. Loud beats. Big smiles.
Families are at the heart of it all. Dedicated play areas give kids space to run wild with colour, while adults dip between dance floors, food trucks, and shaded rest spots. Licensed beverage stations keep things refreshing, and the open beachfront layout means no one feels boxed in. It’s social, spacious, and built for all ages.
What sets this apart is the balance. Color Splash 3.0 manages to feel festive without chaos, energetic without overwhelm. Backed by Ras Al Khaimah Tourism Development Authority as Destination Partner, the event brings credibility alongside celebration, reinforcing RAK’s growing reputation as a place where culture and lifestyle meet naturally.
In a city known for quieter escapes and scenic stays, this festival adds a bold splash of colour to the calendar. It’s for groups of friends planning a weekend road trip, parents looking for something different for the kids, and anyone who wants to mark Holi in a setting that feels special. Short drive. Full experience.
If your March plans need colour, music, and sea views, Color Splash 3.0 delivers all three. Grab your tickets, gather your people, and head to White Beach on 7 March. Ras Al Khaimah’s most vibrant weekend is calling!
