Phuket Prepares for Alcohol-Free Songkran Festivities on April 13
Photo courtesy of The Phuket News Phuket is set to host its annual alcohol-free Songkran festival next Sunday, April 13, offering a vibrant celebration of traditional activities, cultural performances, and live music in a family-friendly environment. This event not only commemorates Songkran's cultural heritage but also supports local tourism and businesses. Deputy Governor Samawit Suphanphai recently outlined the 11th Songkran No Alcohol Festival Phuket 2025. Organised by key stakeholders, including the Phuket Provincial Administrative Organisation, Phuket Tourism Business Association, and local businesses like Limelight Phuket Shopping Mall, the festival aims to uphold Songkran's cultural ethos for future generations. Recognised by UNESCO as intangible cultural heritage, Songkran plays a vital role in showcasing Thailand’s soft power globally. The alcohol-free aspect aims to highlight the dangers of alcohol-related incidents during the festivities, with hopes of reducing Phuket's accident rates this year. Siriwan Siharat, director of the Tourism Authority of Thailand’s Phuket Office, notes the event's integral role in the government’s Amazing Thailand Grand Tourism and Sports Year campaign. She reported a significant 80.9% rise in advance hotel bookings for April 12-16, anticipating over 289,000 tourists and generating around 8.29 billion baht. Running from 4 pm to 10 pm along Dibuk Road, near Limelight Phuket and Queen Sirikit Park in Mueang district, the festival invites visitors to dress in Thai and local fabrics, fully embracing the traditional essence of the Thai New Year. The festival promises a safe, enjoyable celebration that enhances both cultural appreciation and economic vitality in Phuket, aligning with broader efforts to promote Thailand’s rich heritage and tourism industry, reported The Thaiger. -- 2025-04-02 -
