Hi "Governor",

I live near the Bridge and have been going to this for many a year. Never had a problem getting to see the show, as tickets are on sale each day. Many places to view the show from as well. Come one day early and scout around.

Whilst you are here have a look at these photos from last year's show:-

Light & Sound Festival - Kanchanaburi 2007

taken from 4 different locations.

P.S. Week-ends are busy.

Thanks for that, really helpful.

Intending to stay a couple of nights so can look round the area, was thinking of Felix River Kwai Resort Hotel which looks ok and a decent location, any idea what it's like?

Thanks again

The Felix is very nice, but a bit expensive and loads of mosquitoes at night..!!

I always recommend the River Kwai Hotel to any friends that are coming into town. My Mother stays there every year and loves it. Right in the heart of town and close to evrything.

Echo what Kan Win says about the show. Easy to get tickets any day of the week (weekends very busy!) but Mon-Friday no probs.

River Kwai Bridge Festival......... sound and light show.........buying tickets in advance.......weekends are busy.......where to stay??

Could someone please kindly post the dates for this years festival, so for those that are interested know when to come and visit.

Many thanks in advance.

I Googled it and came came up with these details, it seems that the festival is November 24 - December 5, though I could not find any details about advance bookings, hence the question.

I am grateful for the replies and we will be coming this year, mid-week of course.

Hi "Governor",

November 24 (Monday) - December 5 (Friday) 2008

It does not make any sense to me as each and every Festival we have had 2 week-ends and not just one at this time of the year. If this is true

Could be from 27th November till 7th December 2008 which would cover both week-ends.

Will keep you posted.

Yours turly

Kan Win

P.S. Photo taken last year on 7th December from "Felix River Kwai Resort Hotel"

Hello Kan Win

Maybe you will like these dates better

November 28th(Friday)-December 9th(Tuesday)

http://www.tourismthailand.org/festival-event/kanchanaburi-71-5220-1.html

But every website i look at, they all give different dates

Anyone else want to have a guess (no offense to OP's, just the websites) or hopefully someone knows 100%, the correct dates.

Sorry, here is the link to previous post.

Posters are up

Welcome one and all to Kan for this year's Sound and Light Show.

Yours truly,

Kan Win

Many thanks Kan Win

But i thought it was from the 25th November to the 7th December after reading the Bangkok Post on Friday.

Hi "Boycie",

Thank you for your post.

As I saw leaving Kan today for Bangers & Mash (BKK) many new posters are up saying the same dates as in the photo that I posted. Will take more photos this week-end of the other posters, that is (Singha).

Yours truly
