FAQ
What are the most popular festivals to attend in Thailand?
Some of the most popular include Yi Peng & Loy Krathong in Chiang Mai, Songkran (Thai New Year) celebrated nationwide, the Ubon Ratchathani Candle Festival, the Phuket Vegetarian Festival, and the unique Phi Ta Khon Festival in Dan Sai, known for its colorful ghost masks and lively parades.
When is the best time to visit Thailand for festivals?
The best time depends on the festival. Yi Peng is in November, Songkran is mid-April, and the Candle Festival is in July. Each has a different vibe and location, so it’s best to plan your trip around the one you want to experience most.
Are festival tours suitable for families?
Yes, most festivals in Thailand are family-friendly and great for kids. Songkran is especially fun with all the water play, and Yi Peng offers a peaceful and magical atmosphere that children usually enjoy. That said, Phi Ta Khon might be a bit intense for younger kids due to the ghost masks and loud parades, and the Phuket Vegetarian Festival features body piercing rituals that can be graphic—not something we usually recommend for children. We can always adjust the itinerary based on your family’s preferences.
Can I combine a festival tour with other destinations in Thailand?
Absolutely. Most travelers combine festival experiences with beach time, city exploration, or cultural tours. Just let us know what you’d like to include, and we’ll help you build the right itinerary. For example, our 14-day Ultimate Thailand Tour for first-timers can easily include one of the major festivals, depending on your travel dates—we’ll simply adjust the route and timing to make sure you’re part of the celebration.
Do I need to book in advance for festival tours?
Yes, we highly recommend booking early. Festivals attract both local and international travelers, so flights and hotel availability can be limited—especially in Chiang Mai & Chiang Rai during Yi Peng and nationwide during Songkran.
