Koh Phangan Events

The main recurring highlight is the Full Moon Party on Haad Rin Beach. It takes place once a month, and its date is tied to the full moon. It is sometimes moved because of Buddhist holidays, so check the exact date on the event page: do not calculate it from the moon phase alone when buying tickets and planning your trip.

For a different kind of festival, consider the Halfmoon Festival Koh Phangan: March is one month to consider for a trip built around it. Music festivals are also held on the island in autumn, so if you are visiting in October, check the individual festival programs as well. Do not expect to see several different parties on one short visit: first compare their dates and choose the main reason for your trip.

The Koh Phangan event calendar can help you compare events, but make your final plans using the page for the event you choose. Check the location, start time, and entry requirements; look for tickets to a major party or festival in advance. If you are traveling for the Full Moon Party, leave room to adjust your arrival date after checking the schedule, especially if a Buddhist holiday falls nearby.
