Phuket Town · Every September to October
Phuket Vegetarian Festival
Nine days of firecrackers, white-clad devotees and mediums piercing their cheeks with swords and umbrellas.
On now until October 31
What happens when you set this watch
We track every fare from your airport into Phuket for September 20 to October 31, 2026, round trips of 3 to 7 nights, across every airline. The moment one drops, you get one email with the dates, the price and a link to book. Free, and you can stop any time.
Know before you go
- Wear white to enter the shrines, and stand back from the mediums; the processions are not choreographed.
- October is wet season on the Andaman side; mornings are often clear.
- Phuket airport is about 45 minutes from Phuket Town; the beaches on the west coast are 20 to 40 minutes from the old town.
