Loy Krathong is a traditional Thai festival held on the full moon of the twelfth month, usually in November, when people float small decorated baskets called krathongs on rivers and canals to honour the water goddess and let go of the past year. Music and sounds associated with the festival have become popular on TikTok, where creators use them for travel clips, festival highlights, and cultural explainers. The gentle, festive mood fits the lantern-lit atmosphere perfectly, which is why this sound continues to appear in seasonal videos every year.
