Vegetarian Festival 2025 (Thailand)
Vegetarian Festival 2025, also known as the Nine Emperor Gods Festival (九皇勝會 / เทศกาลกินเจ), will return for 10 days from 20 - 29 October 2025. As in previous years, a series of activities will take place from the eve through the ninth day of the ninth month of the Chinese lunar calendar across Thailand, particularly in Phuket and Bangkok. Devotees will observe a vegetarian diet as a form of body purification, accompanied by a host of performances, processions and rituals to commemorate the event.
