Final night of Vegetarian Festival in Phuket – Photo montage

The final night of the annual vegetarian festival in Phuket Town is one of the most exciting, out-of-control, intense and noisy public events in the world. It’s also very dangerous. But, somehow, the participants, mostly, remain unscathed by the sense-assaulting final night activities which sends the nine emperor gods back to their home in the skies.

For three hours firecrackers are constantly exploding on and around the marchers, and spectators too. Acrid smoke fills the air and the noise can be heard for kilometres. Enjoy some of the sights as we farewell another vegetarian festival and contemplate the detritus of all those exploded firecrackers being washed out to sea.
