Want to start your Songkran early? Head over to Fira Phuket because the Grammy-nominated DJ, Sasha, is taking over their beach club for a pre-Songkran party.

Fira Beach Club, perched on Kata’s hills, is already a stunner, but for this event, it’s going up a level. The stage is rising over the water, the cocktails will be flowing, and the Mediterranean-inspired menu will keep you fuelled long into the night.

Price: Free entry

The Songkran No Alcohol Festival is back for its 11th run, turning Dibuk Road into a splash-filled, music-soaked playground on April 13 from 4pm to 10pm.

Forget the usual chaos. This one’s all about tradition with a side of good times. There’ll be Buddhist water ceremonies, elders getting their due respect, and Siam Niramit performers dazzling the crowd with a deep dive into Thai heritage.

The whole place will be draped in kebaya-inspired décor, a nod to Southeast Asia’s most elegant fashion statement. Plus, music fans are in for a treat, with Octobye, 8115, Mood, Hungry Children, Single Band, and Bangkok’s Ant Band hitting the stage. Then, DJ Hut and MC Tmo will be filling the gaps before Aof Pongsak closes the night.

Location: Central Phuket

Price: Start from 200 baht per person per day

Songkran in Phuket is never quiet, but Central Phuket Songkran Carnival 2025 is turning the volume all the way up. Expect four nights of pure chaos, with music so loud you feel it in your ribs, lights flashing like a fever dream, and water absolutely everywhere.

From April 11 to 14, the Phuket Outdoor Arena at Central Phuket becomes a neon-soaked battleground where the only rule is to stay drenched. If you’re after the biggest Songkran celebration in town, this is it.

Tickets are available via Soft.events.

Elsewhere in Phuket…

There’s no such thing as staying dry in Phuket during Songkran. From April 13 to 15, the whole island turns into a massive, open-air, water-drenched fever dream.

Typically, Patong is where the real madness happens. Buckets, hoses, water guns, ice-cold ambushes from strangers who laugh like it’s the best joke in the world. And it is. You’ll be soaked before you even realise what’s happening.

Down in Kata and Karon, it’s all sun, sea, and just the right amount of wild. Beach clubs keep the cocktails flowing, the DJs spinning. Phuket Town is lovely too, with its shophouses, street parties, and families celebrating.

The temples are a different kind of scene, with traditional ceremonies, gentle water poured over Buddha statues, saffron-robed monks accepting offerings in the morning light. It’s quiet and respectful. A reminder that Songkran isn’t just about mayhem, though, for most tourist, the mayhem is the best part.
