Bangkok opens 33 parks across 21 districts for Loy Krathong on November 5, encouraging eco-friendly floats and family participation from morning to midnight.
The 2025 Loy Krathong festival falls on Wednesday (November 5), and the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) will open 33 public parks across 21 districts for residents to celebrate the centuries-old Thai tradition of honouring the Goddess of the River.
