Why Songkran
Songkran is the moment the whole country celebrates, and Bangkok's LGBTQ+ community has always made it its own. Holding Songkran Pride on the weekend before the public holidays (13–15 April) means it opens the week rather than competing with the street water play. Arrive for Songkran Pride, then head to Silom for the holidays.
Music first, community first
Songkran Pride is built around music: an electronic line-up for two days, made for the community first. It is not a trade show. Think of it as the party that opens PrideShow's 2027 season.
The road to June
Songkran Pride is the first big moment on the road to PrideShow 2027, which runs Monday 21 – Tuesday 22 June 2027 at Paragon Hall, Siam Paragon. PrideShow 2026 at BITEC brought 3,000+ attendees across two days, and it is where the Stock Exchange of Thailand became the first exchange in Asia to ring the bell for LGBTIQ+ equality.
