What is a Full Moon Party?

Thailand’s famous Full Moon Festival is known for being one of the best beach parties in the world. The story goes that a group of backpackers in the distant past… the 80s, threw a birthday party on Haad Rin Nok Beach when the moon was in full glow. They loved it so much that they came back again and again. Word spread and the legendary Full Moon Party grew into what we know today. Incredible fire shows, buckets of alcohol (literally, sand castle buckets!), and 30,000 travellers from all over the world, covered from head-to-toe in neon paint, dancing on the beach of Koh Phangan island. It’s a beach party like no other!
When is the Full Moon Party?
It’s synced to the lunar calendar. So every month on the night of the full moon, this unforgettable festival takes over with a party to remember. If you want to experience a mega-party, the best time to go is during peak seasons between July - August and December - April. There’s also an annual New Year’s celebration in Full Moon Party style!
We try to match up our Thailand group tours to coincide with Full Moon Parties.
