It’s about to get wet and wild at Downtown East with the return of the Songkran Festival. The month-long revelry brings Thailand’s iconic celebration to us at Wild Wild Wet, from March 15 to April 15, 2025, so grab your swimsuits and towels for a splashin’ good time.  

The event kicks off with a live performance by The Voice Thailand runner-up Tachaya Prathumwan, also known as Keng. He’ll perform two 30-minute sets, fusing Southeast Asian music with traditional Thai beats to create catchy tunes to vibe to. Following this, guests can also catch exciting Muay Thai demo matches and traditional Thai dance performances. Little ones aged three to 11 are invited to join Muay Thai classes ($5 per session) where they’ll learn the basic techniques of the sport. Interested parties can sign up for the classes here

It’s not a water festival if you aren’t dripping wet. The stars of the event are the inflatable maze and dunk tank, where you can have splash battles with the gang and douse your pals in water. This year’s festival also includes Hasbro Nerf Super Soaker Dunk-Fill water blasters, an upgrade from the usual water guns.

Bring your A-game to the dunk tank and shoot your best shot. You’ll be rewarded with a satisfying ‘sploosh’ when your friend drops into the tank. All in good fun, friends.

Take a break from the water battles and join the outdoor movie screenings of Moana and Finding Nemo, on March 22 and April 12, 2025 from 7pm to 9pm. Chill on the comfy bean bags, grab a free bag of popcorn and LED candy floss, and enjoy the film as you dry off. Come early if you don’t want to miss out on the snacks and seats as these are on a first-come-first-serve basis.

Event tickets are priced from $22 for adults and $16 for children, and all passes come with a free Singha beer or Malee coconut water. More details on the Songkran Festival 2025 can be found here.
