Bun Bang Fai Rocket Festival is an ancient local festival, which is associated with Thai traditional beliefs in the supernatural powers that help promote the production of rice crops for the coming planting season. In the rainy season, the local people believe that the god would hear the entreaties that they create a rocket or “Bang Fai” to send to heaven, and bless them with plentiful rain for rice cultivation. So, the celebration is entirely to the god of rain.
