livinthailandos Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 I just wanted to pass along some news that I have been hearing constantly from multiple people that I interact with that include some villas, restaurants, hotels and travel agencies, from what I know chaweng will have songkran 3 days this year beginning from april 12 to 14 and supposedly the main road into chaweng will close. by the way Im posting this as trying to let people know and also hoping to get more sources as well, it would be nice to be sure of this as a few people i know are trying make sure as want to inform there guests / customers and to avoid unnecessary trips if can't go into chaweng. any updates, sources anyone else can provide would be greatly appreciated thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khunPer Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 To my knowledge, its the Beach Road that should be closed. However, I wonder if the tourists would like three days of Water War, instead of the usual evening, and following one day only...???? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Beach Road will apparently be closed to all traffic on Saturday 13th April EXCEPT for the Gay Pride Parade. http://www.samuitimes.com/alpha-gay-resort-spa-is-excited-to-announce-our-2nd-annual-songkran-pride-parade-in-its-second-year-running/?fbclid=IwAR38-rGFmPJRZuBSy29jqkmYMA4NGcc4hAcEwQvPyttjoKbskPClVFknMZ4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phetphet Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 Someone told me that there would be a band or DJ's outside Central, so that part might be closed as well. Not sure if she meant the road that runs towards the beach, or the road along the lake. Might be best to do any shopping at Tops on Thursday.
