Songkran festival in Bangkok

A splash of fun, family gatherings and countless memorable moments — Songkran festival in Bangkok is easily one of the biggest occasions in Thailand as it is local residents’ New Year’s Day. There is a myriad of ways to celebrate this Songkran festival in Bangkok. While Songkran is often associated with pool parties and water fights, some return to their hometown or go temple visiting. Not only to stay cool during the warm April, but water splashing is also a traditional ritual. It is believed that water will then wash away sins, negativity and bad spirits for the New Year. This local ritual, as well as other cultural infusions, make Songkran a must during your stay in Bangkok.

Songkran festival in Bangkok is a lot of fun with numerous events going on in town. Namely, the annual S2O Festival is always a popular event over the Songkran. The three-day EDM party spans from April 13 to 15 at Live Park Rama 9. This year’s lineup features some of the biggest DJs such as electronic music producer and DJ Fatboy Slim, electronic and dance duo Cat Dealers, Dutch producer Tiesto, German producer Robin Schulz, Australian DJ Throttle and American DJ Steve Aoki. Over at the SHOW DC Arena, SIAM Songkran Music Festival 2019 will be happening. This includes a four-day pass where you can enjoy a wide range of music, from Brazilian bass, and melodic progressive. This Songkran festival in Bangkok encourages to dance on stage and explore traditional Thai delicacies at the TASTE Market. Whereas, gCircuit will host parties on each of the days during Songkran, where talented DJs will bring beats to elevate the holiday mood.

Silom probably boasts the biggest party with the wildest crowd during Songkran festival in Bangkok.

Here, you’ll want to bring all your gear — water guns, buckets and water balloons — and be prepared to get soaked. A fun occasion for young local Thais, the street will be packed with people and plenty of fun. To help you reenergize, there will be a number of food stalls and booths, selling food and drinks as well as more water guns. There will be beer on sale during the day for those who’d like to enjoy an ice-cold tipple in between.
