Lunar New Year's Day is 6 February 2027; confirm Bangkok's Yaowarat programme and closure dates when TAT and the city announce them. 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
- Lion and dragon dances around Yaowarat and Chinatown shrines
- Lantern displays, offerings and an exceptional street-food atmosphere
- Bangkok's largest concentration of Lunar New Year activity
Plan the stop
Practical notes
- Do not assume a two-day street festival until Bangkok publishes the 2027 programme.
- Chinese New Year is not a nationwide Thai public holiday; normal business continues outside celebration areas.
- Use MRT Wat Mangkon and expect pedestrian controls around Yaowarat.
