BANGKOK, Oct 30 – The Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) will not call off this year’s three-day celebration of Loy Krathong festival at Asiatique The Riverfront in the capital Bangkok, though the event will be celebrated quietly to show respect to the late Supreme Patriarch.

TAT Deputy Director of Tourism Products, Wilaiwan Tawichsri, said Wednesday that this year’s event will take place at Asiatique The Riverfront from November 15-17 without entertainment activities as the nation is still in mourning for the death of His Holiness Somdej Phra Nyanasamvara, the Supreme Patriarch of Thailand.
