Thanks Bushmill. But the links suggest a generic June festival rather than a specific week ..

Perhaps I should get my wife to ring up the tourism office.

I attended the Sisaket Festival in 2013 and wrote about it here: http://davidsbeenhere.com/2014/06/05/three-awesome-durian-festivals-thailand/

The festival takes place at the agricultural college.
