Welcoming Songkran Festival 2025 in Kuala Lumpur: A Splash of Thai Culture

April 16, 2025 by StrawberrY Gal

Every April, Thailand bursts into a nationwide celebration to mark Songkran, the Thai New Year. Known for its vibrant energy, water-splashing festivities, and rich cultural traditions, Songkran is one of the most anticipated festivals in Southeast Asia. 

This year, Malaysians are in for a treat as Songkran Festival 2025 makes its way to Kuala Lumpur from 10th to 20th April 2025, happening daily from 12pm to 12am at the GF Forecourt, Old Wing of 1 Utama.
Songkran is more than just a fun-filled water fight. It is a meaningful celebration that blends joy, spirituality, and cultural heritage. This 10-day festival invites visitors to immerse themselves in the heart of Thai culture, with activities that cater to people of all ages and interests. 
One of the highlights of the festival is the UNESCO-recognized cultural performances, featuring traditional Thai dance, music, and art. These showcases are not only visually stunning but also provide valuable insights into the deep cultural significance of Songkran. It’s a unique opportunity to witness centuries-old traditions come alive on stage. 
Another key event is the Ram Blessing Ceremony, a special ritual where blessings for health, prosperity, and happiness are bestowed upon participants. This serene and spiritual experience adds a layer of depth to the celebration, reminding us of the roots of Songkran as a time for renewal and reflection. 🕊️
Of course, it wouldn’t be Songkran without the iconic water-splashing fun! 💦 This playful tradition symbolizes washing away the old and welcoming the new. The KL edition of Songkran Festival promises exciting water activities suitable for all ages, complete with a Bomba Fire Truck that’s sure to turn the heat (and splash) up a notch!
Food lovers will find themselves in paradise with the Thai Culinary Delights section. From popular street snacks to traditional dishes, the festival will offer a wide range of authentic Thai food — some even brought directly from Thailand! It’s a chance to indulge your taste buds and experience the essence of Thai gastronomy. 🍜🇹🇭
To further explore Thai traditions, the festival also includes cultural exhibitions and hands-on workshops. Visitors can try their hand at making traditional Thai perfumes, watch demonstrations of Thai massage techniques, and even learn the art of fruit carving. These interactive experiences are both educational and enjoyable, perfect for families and culture enthusiasts alike. 🌿🍉
As the sun sets, the festival comes alive with exciting nightly entertainment. Live performances by Thai singers, DJs, and a special appearance by Yes Sirday Band from Bangkok will keep the energy going well into the night. Whether you’re dancing, singing along, or simply soaking in the vibes, the entertainment lineup promises to be unforgettable. 🎶🌙
Songkran Festival 2025 is more than just a cultural event — it’s a joyful gathering that celebrates community, renewal, and shared experiences. Whether you’re Thai, Malaysian, or a curious visitor, this festival offers a chance to connect with tradition while having an incredible time.
Best of all, admission is free, making it an accessible event for everyone. So mark your calendars and bring your friends and family to 1 Utama for a celebration like no other!
