River Kwai Bridge Week 2026
An annual 11-day festival in Kanchanaburi featuring a nightly WWII-themed light-and-sound show at the historic bridge, alongside a Red Cross Fair and night market.
River Kwai Bridge Week is an atmospheric annual event held in Kanchanaburi. The festival centers on a nightly light-and-sound show at the bridge, which recreates the wartime Allied bombing of the structure. The production features pyrotechnics and narration detailing the history of the Death Railway. Visitors can also enjoy the annual Red Cross Fair, which includes food stalls, crafts, and fairground rides. The event is free to attend, though seating for the light-and-sound show is limited and operates on a first-come, first-served basis.
