Use this date to shortlist—not to book blindly.
Third weekend of January (Fri–Sun); 2027 dates not yet officially confirmed (2026 ran 16–18 Jan). Verify with TAT Chiang Mai. The placeholder keeps the calendar useful, but this page intentionally omits Event date schema until the edition is confirmed.
Why route around it
What makes it worth the stop
- Streets lined with hundreds of hand-painted paper umbrellas
- Umbrella parade with performers in traditional Lanna dress
- Live craft demonstrations and the Miss Bo Sang pageant
Plan the stop
Practical notes
- Bo Sang is about 9 km east of Chiang Mai old city — easy by taxi or songthaew.
- Evenings are most atmospheric when the umbrellas are lit.
- Confirm the exact January weekend with TAT before locking in travel.
