Pre-book your recovery drip

The morning after a Full Moon Party is our busiest time of the month. Our usual arrival time is about 45 minutes, anywhere from 30 to 60 depending on where you are and how busy we are. On party mornings, we recommend booking the day before. Send us your party date, where you are staying and roughly what time you want the nurse.

Why do Full Moon Party dates move?

The party follows the full moon, so the date changes every month. Sometimes the full moon falls on a Buddhist holy day, such as Makha Bucha or Visakha Bucha. Alcohol sales are banned across Thailand on those days, so the party shifts by a day or so.

That is why a date can change at fairly short notice. Check the official announcements once you are on the island.

Half Moon and Jungle Experience parties

Koh Phangan has more than one big night. The Half Moon Party and the Jungle Experience party are held in the jungle in the Ban Tai area. Their dates vary, so we don’t list them here. Ask at your accommodation or look for local posters once you arrive.

Planning tips for party week

  • Arrive a day early. Weather and travel delays happen, and you don’t want to miss the night you came for.
  • Book your accommodation ahead. Haad Rin fills up around party dates, especially at Christmas and New Year.
  • Expect busy ferries. Boats to and from the island are full around party nights, so book tickets early and allow extra time.
  • Plan the morning after. Keep water by your bed and pre-book a drip if you think you’ll need one.

Before the night itself, read our Koh Phangan Full Moon Party safety guide for practical tips on drinks, money and getting home.

When to go to hospital instead

  • Suspected drink spiking or alcohol poisoning
  • Confusion, or someone who can’t be woken
  • Chest pain or trouble breathing
  • A seizure or a severe head injury
  • Vomiting blood or blood in stool, or a high fever
  • You can’t keep any fluids down for 24 hours

In an emergency in Thailand, call 1669.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

When is the next Full Moon Party?

The next parties in 2026 are on Monday 26 October, Tuesday 24 November, Thursday 24 December and the New Year party on Thursday 31 December. Check locally, as dates can move.

Are the 2027 Full Moon Party dates confirmed?

Not yet. The 2027 dates are projected from published schedules that agree with each other, but the organisers confirm each date closer to the time. Check again before you book flights or ferries.

Why is the Full Moon Party not always on the full moon?

When the full moon falls on a Buddhist holy day, alcohol sales are banned nationwide, so the party moves by a day or so.

Can I book a recovery drip in advance?

Yes, and we recommend it. Party mornings are our busiest time, so book the day before if you can. Tell us your location and the time you want the nurse.

Feeling rough? We’ll come to you.

Send us your location and we’ll have a nurse on the way.
