soihok Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Hello. I understand that official 2014 dates are April 13-15, but I know that Pattaya extends these dates either before or after the official dates, can anyone tell me if they know of the 2014 Pattaya Songkran dates? Trying work around these dates for a visit thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevkev1888 Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 19th will be the last and biggest day. After that it is all over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seasia Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 I am trying to plan a date to visit there not during Songkran. Thanks Hi I don`t blame you. For the last 3 or 4 years there has been early starting of it in some parts of central Pattaya from as early as the 10th. I`d suggest avoiding 10th to 19 th, with as already said it finishing on that last night of the 19 th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gone Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 The word "Songkran" should be banned on all sights until at least March. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soihok Posted September 26, 2013 Author Share Posted September 26, 2013 Thanks to all. I think we will give it a miss. These dates fall on the same as my daughters 2 weeks off mid term. Not to worry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cambodia is no better. Don't forget the news last year in PP where 250 people died (trampled) along River rd. Get your facts right Their water festival takes place at the end of the rainy season in November and it wasn't along River Road . It happened on a bridge Edited February 28, 2014 by Rimmer Flame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KittenKong Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Is this the official 2014 "I hate Songkran" thread? If so, can I be the first to say what a total PITA it is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asiantravel Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 (edited) Is this the official 2014 "I hate Songkran" thread? If so, can I be the first to say what a total PITA it is? Agreed. The choice is do I go to Cambodia or do I stay here and walk around everywhere for 10 days with no phone wearing a plastic cape with hood ?

JSixpack Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Is this the official 2014 "I hate Songkran" thread? If so, can I be the first to say what a total PITA it is? It's about time for the 2014 Songkran FAQ. I'll put it up in a day or two. It's been extensively revised and incorporates last year's threads. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The choice is do I go to Cambodia or do I stay here and walk around everywhere for 10 days with no phone wearing a plastic cape with hood ? I`m considering going to Cambodia during Thai Songkran time. Is there water throwing there as well ? I`m reading conflicting reports, would appreciate knowing from someone who has been there at that time, I`d likely choose PP or Sihanoukville.
