BANGKOK, THAILAND – Media OutReach Newswire – 6 April 2026 – As one of Thailand’s most celebrated annual traditions, Songkran transforms cities across the country into vibrant spaces of culture, community and celebration. This year, Silom — one of Bangkok’s most iconic Songkran hotspots — adds a new dimension to the 2026 festivities with “CP Splash to Space” at CP Tower Silom, supported by Charoen Pokphand Foods PCL (CPF), from 12–14 April 2026. The event introduces a distinctive new Songkran experience that brings together Thai tradition, creativity and inclusive celebration in the heart of one of Thailand’s most iconic festival districts.
While the world knows the familiar images of floral shirts and water splashes, for Thais, Songkran is also a profound moment of respect and joy — a time for family gatherings, honouring elders and sharing blessings through water. What makes Thailand’s New Year especially compelling is the variety of experiences it offers across the country. From the heritage-rich rituals of Chiang Mai and the beachside festivities of Phuket to the multi-layered street celebrations of Bangkok, each destination brings a distinct character to the season.
Among the many iconic Songkran hotspots across the country, Bangkok’s Silom district continues to stand out as one of the festival’s most recognisable destinations, distinguished by its dynamic blend of street celebration, nightlife and Pride energy. In 2026, it is further elevated as a new must-stop landmark for Songkran.
The “CP Splash to Space” event, running from 12 to 14 April 2026, introduces a fresh dimension to Silom’s celebrations with a space-themed festival inspired by CPF’s “Thai Chicken Mission to Space” programme. The event features a range of live performances and interactive activities. Highlights include an appearance by Mix Chaloemsri on 12 April from 15.30–16.00 hrs., a performance by T-pop group iZ on 13 April from 15.00–16.00 hrs., and an international Pride parade on 14 April from 16.30–17.30 hrs., expected to bring together more than 3,000 participants along nearly two kilometres of Silom Road.
Beyond the celebration itself, the event also brings food innovation into the heart of the festival. This year’s theme highlights CPF’s “Thai Chicken Mission to Space,” featuring “Basil Chicken Breast” crafted to NASA’s rigorous food safety standards. For travellers seeking the full Silom experience, it offers a high-tech, high-flavour pitstop amid the festival’s famous water splashes.
This initiative underscores how Songkran continues to evolve as one of Thailand’s most important cultural celebrations, where heritage and creativity can coexist in meaningful ways. By bringing together interactive experiences, contemporary creativity and the traditions of Thai New Year, the event offers a distinctive platform for both local and international visitors to engage with Thai culture in a fresh and memorable way. As Songkran continues to attract growing interest from around the world, experiences such as this help reinforce Thailand’s appeal as a destination where tradition remains vibrant, relevant and globally resonant — creating the kind of Songkran memory that lingers long after the streets have dried.

Industry Leaders, Regulators, and Innovators to Convene in Bangkok at the Intersection Where Digital Assets and Traditional Banking Enter a New Era of Collaboration
BANGKOK, THAILAND – Media OutReach Newswire – 3 April 2026 – the world’s leading fintech show and the place where money does business, today announced the introduction of The Intersection Stage at Money20/20 Asia happening on April 21-23 at the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center in Bangkok bringing together the region’s most powerful voices across banking, payments, digital assets, and financial innovation.
This year’s theme, “From Infrastructure to Impact – Where Technology Meets Humanity,” underscores how the Intersection Stage will explore the real-world outcomes of Traditional Finance and Decentralized Finance convergence across APAC, addressing how banks, fintechs, and emerging technologies are reshaping the global financial ecosystem. The stage brings together leaders from major financial institutions and well-known fintech companies to discuss how innovation, regulation, and new financial infrastructure are transforming areas such as digital assets, trust and cybersecurity, and cross-border payments. [1]
Siva Kumar, APAC Legal Director, Sumsub, said, “The convergence of TradFi and DeFi can only succeed if trust, identity, and compliance evolve alongside technology. Asia is leading this shift by adopting regulatory models that enable innovation without compromising security. At Sumsub, we’re witnessing institutions accelerate digital identity and verification standards at unprecedented speed. The Intersection Stage brings these critical stakeholders together to turn regulatory progress into real‑world impact.”
Speakers include Siddharth Gupta of Bank of America, Dhiraj Bajaj of Standard Chartered Bank, Fangfang Jiang of the International Finance Corporation, Ran Goldi, SVP Payments & Network, Fireblocks and Kaushik Sthankiya of Kraken, who will share insights on regulatory innovation, digital asset adoption, developments in stablecoin, tokenization, blockchain‑enabled settlement, and how new payment rails are enabling faster and more efficient cross-border transactions.
For decades, Traditional Finance aimed to protect the system while Decentralized Finance wanted to reinvent it. Today, these two worlds are converging where digital money moves faster than ever, said Danny Levy, EVP & Managing Director for APAC & the Middle East at Money20/20. The Intersection Stage brings together the regulators and innovators driving the frameworks that will guide the next decade of global finance.”
The broader 2026 program also features keynote speakers such as Joseph Chan, Under Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury of the Government of Hong Kong SAR; Shahril Azuar Jimin, Group Chief Sustainability Officer at Maybank; and Sunita Kannan, Global Head of AI Product & Strategy at Microsoft, underscoring the calibre of leadership shaping the future of finance across the region.
From Asia’s pioneering regulatory sandboxes and CBDC initiatives to the Genius Act in the US to MiCA in Europe. Regulated institutions like AMINA Bank are at the forefront of this transformation, particularly in navigating the evolving regulatory landscape across key markets.
Cora Ang, Head of Legal & Compliance APAC, AMINA Bank said, “Asia is demonstrating what responsible innovation truly looks like. As digital assets, tokenization, and new payment rails gain momentum, strong legal and compliance frameworks are essential to scaling them safely. At AMINA Bank, we see the region embracing this balance with clarity and ambition. The Intersection Stage at Money20/20 Asia is the perfect forum to advance these conversations and align the industry on what the next generation of financial infrastructure should be.”
