Songkran is starting the 13th and ends the 15th of April 2011.
Maybe only the first and second date in HH though.

One can never be sure of anything these days, but I think this is about as safe a bet as you could make.

Happy Holidays -

Relax guys, just a little humor to lighten the day.....looks like we may have overlooked the fact that you're there, not here.

Mattrotman could have been asking when is Songkran in HH..as opposed to say Chaing Mai..??
Yes it normally kicks-in the evening of the 12th...but in C.M.it can run for 7 or 8 days (even longer in Patts)
Where as HH is a little more subdued at 2-3 days max.
You will get used to the sarcasm on here M.m. (but if you've not done Songkran before M.m. then get your
flight booked...come & enjoy the biggest water fight you've ever had.. :-) & lots of wet T-shirts.. ;-) he-hee)

Ah, the one day excuse in HH/everywhere for everyone to lose their minds and act like children.

Scooter boy and the idiots that infest the locality have a chance to act with impunity and grope girls, get drunk, break the law as much as possible and have nothing but contempt for everything whilst the rest of society hide from the ridiculousness of the event/adventure.

:|

Many older Thais will disagree with the way it is now.

Visitors excused because they are tourists and think it's cool. :roll:

Suppose the BBK weekend wonders are a contributing factor to the general problems on this one.

Does anyone know what day the main water fight is? I'm assuming 14th for some reason? Sister + family are coming over with Songkhran specifically in mind, but fly home on the 15th :?

Cheers,
SJ
