You will be greeted with the sight of numerous international and local DJs at the local bars of the beach and also on the stages that are set alongside the shoreline. With music ranging from drums and beats to dubstep tracks, hip-hop, trance to techno and rock, this music rage goes all night and all day long. One of the main highlights of the event is The Flaming Swing. Everyone is welcome to try this amazing ride that is set for the entertainment of people.

There are plenty of islands where the party goes on, and as you take a walk on the beach, you will see the music starts to get heavier. A cool tradition of the event is to paint the body in neon-colored body paint. At least that’s what everyone does. The UV strip lights that are present there help to make the body glow from the paint at night.

One of the most famous beverages in the Haad Rin beach’s Full Moon Party is certainly the ‘bucket.’ Consisting of a bottle of strong liquor (either vodka, whiskey or sugarcane rum from the local bars) mixed with a can of red bull, and ice. You might even need to water the drink down a bit as it is too strong. The bucket is meant for sharing, costing of six straws n each bucket and they are strong enough to get you all tipsy drunk. Costing 200-300 baht, they’re the perfect party drinks, and you get them everywhere.

The full moon party Thailand starts a bit early in the evening time, but it is advised to arrive a bit late to the event. We’d say at around 22:00 if the earliest. This is the only way that people will be able to make it until the morning. And that’s time when more and more people show up to get the party started in high gear, with blazing, fire shows, glow-in-the-dark body paint, and glow sticks. The party heats up during the night, and people have a blast with music, dancing, and booze.

Now there are the more serene and peaceful options as well. If you are tired of the party scene, then you can head to one of the amazing restaurants of the place to enjoy a healthy meal or two.

3. Getting Ready for The Party

You can’t just show up to the party and expect to have a wonderful time. Certain preparations need to be made first so that you have a gala time at the event, all the while being safe and secure. Now, the party gets pretty crazy with people being drunk and all, but being safe and prepared is the first thing that should be on your mind.

• Accommodation: Booking a hotel that is close to the beach is advisable for many. It makes it a bit easier to go home after the party ends. You can opt to stay at someplace else but the closer, the better it is. You might want to make your bookings early as the resorts and the hotels are in demand.
• Details: Some taxis take you to the more remote locations of the hotels in the Koh Phangan and even Koh Samui if you have a place to stay there. Make sure that you have the business card of the hotel that you’re staying at for convenience.
• Passport Copy: This is one of the more essential things that you need to carry your ID in Thailand. Do not take the original one as you might lode it in the crowd. A photocopy should do the job well.
• Company: Friends make every event special, and you always have someone to look after you in case you get a little too boozy.
• Flip flops: The sand from the Haad Rin beach can get stuck in the shoes as they are pretty soft. So wearing flip flops would be the right thing to do.

The most beautiful way to spend a holiday is to visit the full moon party Thailand has every year. Make sure that you are safe with your belongings though, as there are many pickpockets.
