Phuket ready for Peranakan festival
Bangkok Post
|May 17, 2025
Parade and noodle cook-off planned
Phuket is gearing up for a spectacular celebration, including a grand carnival procession, as part of the Phuket Peranakan Festival 2025.
The event, to be held from June 20-22, is expected to stimulate the resort island’s economy by pumping in over 400 million baht.
This year’s festival has been elevated to a new level, partly to celebrate prestigious awards Phuket recently received, said Adul Chuthong, Phuket’s deputy governor.
These accolades include the Creative City Award (Cultural Asset category) from the Creative Economy Agency (CEA), the Asia Pinnacle Award from the International Festivals & Events Association (IFEA) Asia, and the Gold Pinnacle Award at the IFEA Annual Convention & Expo in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
