The processions yesterday morning were heading to Saphan Hin Public Park in Phuket Town before heading back to the shrines.

A “street procession” is conducted every day by every shrine during the festival. The procession offers an opportunity for householders and the general public along the streets to receive the blessing of gods that locals believe are possessing the spirit mediums.
The parades and processions were canceled in 2021 due to Covid-19 concerns and under strict Covid-19 rules in 2020 making this year the first full Vegetarian Festival since 2019.
