It’s Phi Ta Khon Time in Loei, Thailand ~ ผีตาโขน ด่านซ้าย จังหวัดเลย
This Year, 2021, the Phi Ta Khon Festival is on June 12-14th!
Phi Ta Khon in Loei is my favorite festival in Thailand. This is a great event to bring the whole family to, as it takes place in late June or July, during the Summer school break when families can travel. The local people are very friendly and there are mask painting and other classes that allow you to really learn about the festival and culture. In fact, the locals don’t mind if you wear a costume and join in the parade. There are also some great souvenirs to buy and a chance to try some exotic food. Be sure to book your hotel early or be prepared to stay in a nearby town and hire a driver.
I had been looking forward to seeing the Phi Ta Khon Festival, for almost twenty years, and I was not disappointed. It takes place in the small town of Dansai, in the province of Loei, which is located in the Northeast or Isaan area of Thailand. The parade of ghosts was very colorful, loud, somewhat casual, and yet fast-paced. The main street was lined with food vendors selling Isaan treats like fried grasshoppers, BBQ meat on a stick, fried pork skins, and souvenir stands selling t-shirts, masks, and postcards. Like most of the festivals in Isaan it rained off and on every day.

Here Come The Ghosts
Day 2 of Phi Ta Khon
On the second day of the festival, the parade was even shorter. Back at the hotel, we sat down for a nervous image review. Luckily, I had managed to keep the lens clean and had captured enough different ghosts to make four pages in the book, although with all of the food vendor photos added, I could easily have made a whole book on Phi Ta Khon. Hmmmmmm.
Fon made a short movie that I think really captures the spirit of this wild festival.
The Phi Ta Khon Festival runs from June 12-14th this year- ! (Covid-19 Permitting) this year. You’d better already have a room if you’re planning on attending, which calls to mind a horror story from last year, but let’s try to forget about that!

About the Authors
Photographer George Edward Giunca, and his Thai wife have traveled around Thailand armed with a circular fisheye lens to create a photo essay on the rich cultural diversity, and abundant natural beauty of the Kingdom of Thailand. Fleeing from angry water buffaloes, slapping huge mosquitoes, watching exotic festivals and religious rituals, gorging on delicious spicy food, applying aloe vera cream to sunburned skin, wading through rice paddies, getting drenched to the bone by heavy monsoon rains, and gawking at breath-taking scenery; made it a journey of epic proportions! The result is the book, THAILAND 180º. Later, they traveled extensively through Myanmar, Malaysia, and India, gathering a massive collections of 180º photos. They currently live in Bangkok.
