Chinese New Year in Hua Hin

Post by Pagey »

Anyone know if any events for Chinese New Year on 26th Jan ?

Last year the Tessabahn organised parades etc in the park, can't find anything for this year so far.

Anyone help ? :cheers: :cheers:

Was in town centre last year and there was a great parade from the tessabaan (near the main traffic lights) starting about 5pm - loads of fire crackers, lots of locals including many schools taking part, dragon dances, acrobats etc. Hopefully they'll do the same again this year. Don't want to miss it.
