About

Lopburi's annual monkey banquet places decorated displays of fruit and vegetables near Phra Prang Sam Yot for the city's macaques. The spectacle is widely associated with the last Sunday of November, but the 2026 organiser programme has not yet been published.

Highlights

  • Decorated fruit and vegetable displays for the town's macaques
  • Several scheduled feeding rounds in recent editions
  • Set against the 13th-century Khmer-style Phra Prang Sam Yot

Plan it well

  1. Check current rail or bus schedules before treating Lopburi as a Bangkok day trip
  2. Keep a tight grip on bags, glasses and phones — the monkeys are bold
  3. Don't carry food openly; the macaques will grab it

Pattaya International Fireworks Festival 2026
