Mark your calendar for this splendid occasion, which will take place from November 29 to December 10, 2023, and immerse yourself in the world of Thai silk, as this is one of the most interesting things to do in Khon Kaen this time of the year.
The city comes alive with enthralling activities against the backdrop of this celebration. A dazzling street parade, adorned in a riot of colours, winds its way through the streets, accompanied by captivating folklore performances that showcase the region’s rich heritage. Visitors are also afforded the unique opportunity to witness silk production exhibitions, providing them with insights into the meticulous craftsmanship that defines Thailand’s silk industry. Fly down for the event early so you can enjoy some exploring as well as a restful night’s rest at a property such as Avani Khon Kaen Hotel and Convention Centre.
