Damn! Very sad to say but the CK Music Fest is now postponed for 3 months.

The new date: Saturday 24th April 2021.

We regret to announce that the Chiang Khong Music festival for Saturday 30th January is postponed for 3 months.
The current threat of Covid-19 has created an air of uncertainty about official permits being cancelled, with the subsequent withdrawal of funding, such that we cannot guarantee a successful event.

Very reluctantly then, we have rescheduled the event for Saturday 24th April 2021.

We apologize deeply for the inconveniences this will cause.

Full refunds on tickets & shirts purchased in advance will be given.
Hotel bookings can be transferred to the new date, or refunded by contacting the hotel concerned.

We believe that the coast will be clear by Saturday 24th April & the event can go ahead without any issues.

For the event on 24th April the format will change slightly. The same bands, plus a few more.
It will feature multiple small stages along the new river foreshore, with the main stage at the Tha Pha Tan Pier. As such it will not be a straight concert, but more a delightful riverside music festival.

The new Chiang Khong riverside boulevard should be completed in January / February so the CK Music Festival can be a double banger to coincide with a grand opening of the Chiang Khong river foreshore boulevard.

Also no registration or entry fee will be required for the postponed event, so it will be a win win.

Many thanks for your understanding & our apologies for the postponement, but we believe this is the best for all parties.

See you all on the new date. Saturday 24th April 2021.

For those who would still like to come to Chiang Khong on the 30th January we are negotiating to have a couple of Chiang Rai musicians come & play in Chiang Khong.
Just a couple of duos, a guitarist & singer to provide some music downtown.

Rin Bar is one that has agreed to come to the party.
We will endeavour to arrange another spot with some light music.
