Holika Dahan (2021)
According to Hindu scriptures Holika Dahan, which is also known as Holika Deepak or Chhoti Holi, should be done during Pradosh Kaal (which starts after sunset) while Purnimasi Tithi is prevailing.
🙏 Beware, Tithi depends according to your location; please check a regional Panchangam to be precise.
❓ Why is Holika Dahan celebrated ?
Holika Dahan marks the the victory of good over evil. According to history, Hiranyakashyap - a demon king had become very powerful and no one could overpower him. His son Prahlad was an ardent follower of Lord Vishnu and Hiranyakashyap had stopped him from worshipping the god. He had attempted to kill his son Prahlada by making him sit on a burning pyre with his aunt Holika, who had a boon that prevented her from being harmed. Prahlada chanted Lord Vishnu's name and Holika was burnt but no harm came to him.

Holi Bhai Dooj (2021)
Bhai Dooj is one of the significant Hindu festivals. It strengthens the bond of affection between brothers and sisters. As the name suggests the festival is observed on second day i.e. Dwitiya Tithi as per Hindu calendar.
Bhai Dooj is also known as Bhratri Dwitiya. There are two Bhai Dooj in Hindu calendar. The other one, which is more popular, is observed two days after Deepavali Puja and also known as Bhai Dooj.
Holi Bhai Dooj, although quite popular in some regions, is less known festival. Famous treatise on Hindu festivals e.g. Dharma Sindhu, Nirnaya Sindhu and Vratraj also do not mention Holi Bhai Dooj. Holi Bhai Dooj should be observed when Dwitiya Tithi prevails. Hence depending on Holika Dahan day, it might fall either next day or on second day after Rangawali Holi.

Ranga Panchami (2021)
At some places in India Holi is played on Ranga Panchami. Ranga Panchami usually falls after five days of Holi festivity in rest of the India.
Even in some temples of Mathura and Vrindavan, it is Ranga Panchami which culminates the Holi festivity.
In several parts of India, Holi festivities, which begin on Phalguna Purnima Tithi, conclude with Rang Panchami, on the Panchami Tithi of Phalguna, Krishna Paksha (as per the Amavasyant calendar) and Panchami Tithi, Chaitra, Krishna Paksha (as per the Purnimant calendar). As it is evident from this festival's name, it involves colours, and they represent the five elements that form the human body and the universe. Besides being a day that celebrates the myriad shades of a joyful life, Rang Panchami is an important day to understand Panch Tattva's significance.

The Hinglaj Yatra (9th April 2021)
Situated on an ancient trade route between East and West, Balochistan province. Along the Arabian Sea, its otherworldly coast is considered home to the divine. Every spring, more than 40,000 people flood the monochromatic landscape to honor the goddess Sati and cleanse their sins through a series of rituals during Hinglaj Yatra—the largest Hindu pilgrimage in the Muslim-majority nation.
The origin of Hinglaj begins with; The goddess Sati married Shiva, god of destruction, against her father’s wishes. To punish his disobedient daughter, he refused to invite her new husband to a sacred ceremony. Humiliated by the insult, Sati threw herself into the ritual pyre and ended her own life. Shiva carried her corpse until his grief threatened to destroy the world, so the other gods dismembered her body to halt his morbid dance. Fifty-one pieces fell to Earth, scattered throughout modern day India, Pakistan, Nepal, Sri Lanka, and Bangladesh.
