Guderian Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 My Thai Visa calender tells me that Loy Krathong this year is on 6, 7 and 8 November. Can anyone please tell me which of these three days is the big day in Pattaya when everyone goes to the beach to float their krathongs and send their kom loys up into the sky?

Guderian Posted October 30, 2014 Author Share Posted October 30, 2014 OK, it's the 6th as far as I can tell. Some of the big hotels are having a Loy Krathong party then so I assume that's the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenhill Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 On my Foodland calender, it states the 6th as the only date and Foodland couldn't be wrong!!! It's the 6th!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTH Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 To make it easy for revelers, Loy Kratong is always celebrated at the full moon early November (and occasionally late October). Just check any lunar calendar and you'd be spot on. This year it's the 6th of November as mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just check any lunar calendar and you'd be spot on. This year it's the 6th of November as mentioned. That's how I've worked out which day it is in the past, but according to the Thai Visa calender this year the full moon is on the 7th. That's why I've been confused. I've checked some lunar almanacs and they all say the 6th, so it just seems there's a mistake in this year's calender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
