November Full Moon Party Canceled as Nation Enters Mourning Period for Queen Mother

KOH PHANGAN – The renowned Full Moon Party scheduled for November 5th, 2025, has been officially canceled following the passing of Her Royal Majesty Queen Mother Sirikit. The decision comes as Thailand enters a formal period of national mourning after the Queen Mother’s death on October 25th at the age of 93.

Event organizers made the announcement through official channels, confirming simply that “The Full Moon Party will not take place this month.” The cancellation extends to other major festivities, including the Jungle Experience event planned for November 4th on the island.

The decision reflects the suspension of major public celebrations across the kingdom as a mark of respect. While Loy Krathong festivities will proceed in November, officials have indicated they will be conducted in a traditional and culturally appropriate manner that honors the somber national mood.

The cancellation presents significant logistical challenges for organizers, who typically begin planning these massive events nearly a year in advance. The intricate preparations include booking international DJs, arranging extensive safety measures, and setting up substantial temporary infrastructure on Haad Rin Beach.

Tourists and travelers are being advised that the next Full Moon Party is expected to resume in December 2025, coinciding with the start of the high tourism season. Visitors currently on or planning travel to Koh Phangan are encouraged to verify ferry schedules and explore the island’s alternative cultural and natural attractions during this period of modified activities.
