PHUKET: -- Phuket will hold a Lantern Festival next month as officials snowball a number of celebrations together: Valentine’s Day, the ChineseNew Year and the induction of Phuket as a UNESCO City of Gastronomy.

The event will be held throughout the island and run from February 2-22.

“We will fill the island with light, as well as promote the more than 300 kinds of Phuket foods that secured it a place as a UNESCO City of Gastronomy,” said Phuket Governor Chamroen Tipayapongtada. “We have already coordinated with the Tourism Authority of Thailand to ensure that this is a major event on Phuket this year – it will be a perfect compliment to the Chinese New Year and Valentine’s Day.”
