rooster59 Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 Pattaya Songkran set to last all week until April 19th Image: 77Jowo 77Jowo reported that Pattaya's Songkran celebration began on Beach Road on Thursday evening ahead of the official Friday start. It was good-natured fun, they said, as Thais and foreigners frequenting the area beer bars doused people walking past and those on baht buses got a serious soaking. Beer bar operators were supplying the water and making money from the sale of water guns, said the media. The official time of the celebration is set from the 13th to the 19th of April.

gk10002000 Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 Experienced it once back in 2006. That was enough. Just too inconvenient to walk around and do things during the day. This year I am in the States and will be going to the Melbourne, Florida Wat Thai for their celebration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some older ladies were on the bhat bus with me had shopping bags from Central with what looked like clothes and "other" things that should not be wet. they weren't happy to say the least. One lady from Khon Kaen said she never saw it start early. Neither have I? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since it's a fact that it was Pattaya then it's a fact that "That was not Pattaya" is made up as I said. It's been starting on the 11th for years, even last year when things were supposed to be muted, so there's no reason to expect any change that I know of. Hence the FAQ predicts the 11th. No reason whatsoever to doubt your statement. In fact I heard the same from a Thai friend who went shopping at Central on Wed. evening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
