Hi there, do you know of a town or village having the rocket festival this year in Laos? I know that Yasothon has a big one but I'd prefer to celebrate one that's not commercial and well known. I believe the festival is celebrated at different dates for different places.

Please let me know if you have any place you recommend and which dates it is!

Thanks!

A couple of years ago I went to a village called Ban Phonmoung about 25klms along Route 13 North. Early may.
