From Apr. 1 to 30, 2021, Wild Wild Wet (WWW) will be launching its Songkran Water Festival, transforming the waterpark into a Thai-themed attraction.
For the uninitiated, Songkran is the Thai New Year festival that falls on Apr. 13. It is known for its water festival, where celebrants will take part in the tradition by splashing water on one another.
Here's an overview of what you can look forward to at WWW's month-long Songkran Water Festival:
Daily water gun battles
Guests are invited to bring your water guns, super soakers and water blasters as each day, roving talents with water gun backpacks will challenge guests to a water "fight" from 3pm to 5pm.

50 water guns will be distributed at the entry point and collected at the exit point.
