Based
on accommodation searches made on Agoda, Malaysian travelers are followed by
visitors from Hong Kong SAR, Indonesia, South Korea,
and the Philippines when it comes to their eagerness to take part in
the Thai New Year celebrations.
Songkran,
celebrated annually from April 13-15, is famous for its spectacular water
fights that take place across Thailand. The top five city destinations for
international Songkran visitors are Bangkok, Pattaya, Phuket, Hat
Yai, and Chiang Mai.
Key
events in Bangkok include the Maha Songkran World Water Festival
2025, hosted by the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT), and the Siam
Songkran Music Festival, featuring performances by renowned artists from around
the globe.
Akaporn
Rodkong, Country Director Thailand at Agoda, shared, "As the Songkran
festival approaches, it's exciting to see a wide range of international
tourists considering visiting Thailand. And rightly so—Thailand's lively
celebrations and unique experiences create an atmosphere that's hard to resist.
Whether celebrating Songkran in Bangkok or exploring other
destinations in Thailand, Agoda is here to help travelers find the best
deals on flights, accommodations, and activities to make this festive season
unforgettable."
To
make Songkran even more exciting and affordable, Agoda is offering a "Songkran
Fest" promotion, providing travelers with up to 10% additional discounts
at participating hotels in Thailand. The promotion is available for
bookings and stays made before April 15, 2025. For more information,
