For those who are feeling FOMO about missing the iconic Songkran Festival in Thailand, don’t be. There are many water parks and water playgrounds in Singapore where you can splash about too. And here’s another you can add to the list – the Songkran Kids Festival at Wild Wild Wet.
Happening from 1st-30th April 2024, this first-ever kid-friendly Songkran festival will feature water gun battles, dance parties, live DJs, and huge inflatables to bounce on. Here’s what’s up:

The Songkran festival and water gun battles go hand in hand. That’s why the event will feature water gun battle stations all around Wild Wild Wet. Kiddos can pick their water pistol of choice, and have an epic battle to see who’s the best waterbender.

The massive inflatable obstacle course is a must-visit at the festival too. Located next to the Royal Flush ride, this 25m-long elephant-inspired float will put your kid’s agility to the test. They’ll have to navigate their way through the obstacles, and bounce – or slide – their way through to the end.
The hair tinsel and airbrush tattoo booths are open from 12pm-5pm.

There’s a slew of cool workshops and activities to check out too. Kids can show off their swanky dance moves at the dance workshops happening every weekend at 1pm and 2.20pm, and there’ll be a dance finale party at 4pm as well.
Then, head to the hair tinsel booth to amp up your festival look – tots can choose from an array of colourful and sparkly tinsels to add to their tresses. Complete the look with an airbrush tattoo or two at the booth next door.

What’s a festival without some poppin’ music, amirite? Hard Style DJ Joeru will be gracing the festival and spinning kid-friendly tunes from 1pm-5.30pm, so families can jam out to catchy music.
Festival tickets go from $21/child and $29/adult, and each ticket will entitle you to a cute reusable straw and welcome drink*. You can also upgrade and get the Splash passes for $50/ticket – you’ll get access to the hair tinsel and airbrush tattoo stations, as well as an elephant-themed towel.
*Limited to first 50 redemptions each day.
