To celebrate the end of Buddhist Lent, Chonburi officials have once again organized their annual Buffalo Racing Festival.
The weeklong festival runs from Oct. 14-20, with the highlight being the buffalo races Oct 18-20 on the field in front of city and provincial government offices.
As usual, races will be complemented with booths selling locally made items, stage performances, games and beauty contests. There also will be a “13 kwienkan” cart for offerings to monks, parade and an amulet-judging contest.
Events also include a buffalo beauty pageant, Miss Farmer beauty contest and a comic buffalo costume contest, rides for children and concerts of folk music. The fair includes handicrafts and food stalls appealing to visitors who love authentic Thai food, snacks and sweets.
