From November 16 to December 15, Bangkok’s riverfront will come alive each night. Seven iconic landmarks across 14 key locations will be illuminated with light displays, laser shows, and projection mapping.

We aim to generate at least 600 million Baht, boost local tourism income, and encourage extended stays along the Chao Phraya River.”
