Thao Thep
Kasattri and Thao Sisunthon Fair is held on March 13 every
year to commemorate the two great heroines who rallied the
Thalang people to repel Burmese invaders. Many activities
and celebrations are organised.
Seafood Festival, held around May yearly, is designed
to publicise the delicious seafood of Phuket and attract
visitors during the rainy season. Activities include a
Marine Tourism Resources Parade, seafood stalls,
demonstrations of regional cuisines and cultural shows.
 Vegetarian
Festival is held on the first day of the 9th lunar month
(usually October). Phuket islanders of Chinese ancestry
commit themselves to a 9-day vegetarian diet, a form of
purification believed to help make the forthcoming year
“trouble-free”. The festival is marked by several ascetic
displays, including fire-walking and ascending sharp-bladed
ladders.
Phuket Travel Fair , held on November 1, was first
initiated in 1985 at Patong to welcome in the tourist season
and designed to foster co-operation among tourism-related
operators both in the private and public sectors. Many
colourful and interesting activities are organised, such as
merit-making in the morning, water sports contests, a Miss
Visitor Contest, among others.
Songkran Festival
Songkran is a Thai traditional New Year which starts on
April 13 every year and lasts for 3 days. Songkran festival
on April 13 is Maha Songkran Day or the day to mark the end
of the old year, April 14 is Wan Nao which is the day after
and April 15 is Wan Thaloeng Sok which the New Year begins.
At this time, people from the rural areas who are working in
the city usually return home to celebrate the festival.
Thao
Thep Krasatri-Thao Sri Suntorn Festival
 is held on 13 Macrh yearly in memory of the two heroines who
led the defense of the island against the Burmese in 1785.
Laguna Phuket Triathlon is held in each December. The
triathlon (a 1,000-metre swim, a 5-kilometre bike race and a
12-kilometre run) attracts world-class athletes from all
over the world.
This annual year end event sees the world's top triathletes
and hundreds of amateurs competing for prize money and
placing on the world triathlon circuit. The course, which
includes swimming, bicycling, and running through the
beautiful natural surroundings of Laguna Phuket in Tambon
Choeng Thale, takes from two-and-a-half to five hours to
complete.
Tourist Season Opening Festival , starting from
November 1, is usually called the Patong Carnival, from the
place where celebrations occur. Colourful parades, sports
events, and a beauty competition for foreign tourists are
major activities.
Phuket King ’s Cup Regatta is held in December. The
Phuket Yacht Club hosts international yachtsmen, largely
from neighbouring countries who compete in the Nai Han Beach
area for royal trophies.
Loi
Krathong Festival
 The most picturesque of the Thai festivals is held on the
full-moon of the 12th lunar month. Little candle-lit
krathongs are launched onto the water as an offering to
Mother Water. People apologise for polluting the water and
promise to do better in the future.
Loy means to send adrift, and Krathong means: a little
basket-like boat containing small flowers and other
offerings suitable for the water spirits.
Turtle Release Fair is held on Songkran, the nationwide
Thai water festival, on April 13 which is also National
Fisherman’s Day. Baby turtles are released into the sea at
various locations.
Chao Le (Sea Gypsy) Boat Floating Festival falls
during the middle of the sixth and eleventh lunar months
yearly. The sea gypsy villages at Rawai and Sapam hold their
ceremonies on the 13th; Ko Si-re celebrates on the 14th; and
Laem La (east of the bridge on Phuket’s northerntip) on the
15th. Ceremonies, which centre around the setting adrift of
small boats similar to the Thai festival of Loi Krathong,
are held at night and their purpose is to drive away evil
and bring
good luck.
