When is Songkranval Festival ?
The date of the festival was originally set by astrological
calculation, but it is now fixed. If these days fall on a weekend, the missed days
off are taken on the weekdays immediately
following. Songkran falls in the hottest time of the year in Thailand, at the end of
the dry season.

Significant of Songkran Festival
In Thailand, people often cook foods in the morning and go to the temple. And some people also go to back to their house to ask their parents for wishes and a ‘good luck’. During 13-15 April most of the people throw water at each other, because Songkran is celebrated during the hottest time in Thailand.

Greetings
The traditional greeting is "สวสัดีปีใหม่" (sawatdi pi
mai), basically "Happy New Year". Sawasdee is also
used for "hello" or "goodbye". Pi and mai mean
"year" and "new" respectively in Thai. Another
greeting used is "สุขสนัตว์นัปีใหม่" (suk san wan pi mai),
where suk san means "happy".
However, most people use "สุขสนัตว์นัสงกรานต"์ (suk san
wan songkran) — meaning "Happy Songkran Day"
