About this event
Ok Phansa falls on Friday 15 October 2027 in published Thai calendars, the full moon of the eleventh Thai lunar month, marking the end of Buddhist Lent. This date is expected in this record: it is a lunar date carried as provisional in published calendars and has not been confirmed by an official announcement. Ok Phansa is a Buddhist holy day and not a public holiday, so government offices and banks stay open as normal. Alcohol sales are prohibited on the day under Thai law. Temples hold merit making to close the Lent period, and folk festivals cluster around the same lunar date in the provinces.
