Raffles Songkran Splash Festival: A Grand Celebration of Culture & Learning
Samut Prakan, April 09 – A Day of Celebration! Raffles International College kicked off the Thai New Year with the spectacular Raffles Songkran Splash Festival 2026. The campus turned into a vibrant hub of excitement, welcoming students, staff, and the wider community. With water splashing, cultural highlights, and festive activities, the event captured the true spirit of Songkran in a way that was fun and memorable.
Guests enjoyed a variety of attractions throughout the day. From lively game booths inspired by traditional Thai fairs to the refreshing Songkran Water Splash activity. Furthermore, the Traditional Water Splashing Ceremony added a meaningful touch, blending celebration with traditional Thai culture.
One of the festival’s highlights was the Business Student Market Zone. There, students from the Business programme set up their kiosks, worked with vendors, and sold products directly to festival visitors. This hands‑on experience allowed them to practice real business skills, for instance, preparing goods, serving customers, and managing their stores. It was a proud moment that showed how Raffles encourages students to learn by doing.
The Raffles Songkran Splash Festival was more than just an event. It was a showcase of creativity, community, and student talent. Combining festive fun with practical learning opportunities, Raffles proved once again that education can extend beyond the classroom. The festival left lasting memories and reflected the exceptional learning environment at Raffles.
