ANNIVERSAIRE DU ROI VAJIRALONGKORN (RAMA X)

Official festival

It's a new public holiday created in 2017, adding to the many already on the Thai calendar. The date marks the birthday of the new King Vajiralongkorn (also known as Rama X), who took over as head of the country following the death of his father on October 13, 2016.
