The New Year party will offer a full fusion of RnB, hip-hop, dance, electro and reggae music. Booze buckets and fire shows and dances will contribute to the aura of extravagance which attracts an average of 30,000 revellers to the southern Gulf of Thailand island every full moon.
Accommodation proprietors in the environs of Haad Rin report full bookings for the days prior to and following the New Year. There are still vacancies in other parts of the island and on the neighbouring island of Koh Samui. Boat and ferry operators run services throughout the night of any party to provide convenience for partygoers.
12GO ASIA notes that transport choices to Bangkok and the south are gradually filling up. For this reason, people travelling to Koh Samui, Koh Phangan, Koh Tao and Suratthani should book their tickets post haste.
