Festivals in Thailand

Hi Priscilla. The biggest festival in Thailand is during Songkran, the Thai New Year. This happens from April 13-15. It's usually the hottest days of the year. But what happens is people spray each other with water. If you're up for that, there are particular streets in Bangkok where all sorts of people, expats, locals, young old, men, women, boys, girls, come dressed to get wet and with equipment to wet. It a very festive atmosphere.

Away from the tourist areas and roadways, one can also experience a more traditional Songkran where villagers all return home to visit family and friends.  Some days are dedicated to walking around the village to visit the homes of village elders and paying respect by gently pouring scented water over their hands and receiving a blessing in return.  Granted there is far too much drinking but that is another story.

Up North, 'Loi Krathong' is a lovely festival based on the lunar calendar and usually falls sometime during the month of November.

Thailand biggest festival is Songkran or Water Festival Day. It celebrated throughout all these Indochinese regions for 2 or more days as it also their New Year Day.
