Coda Audio AiRay and ViRay supplied for outdoor city centre stage in Chiang Mai

Held in April 2025 in Chiang Mai, Thailand, “Songkran” is a festival which celebrates the traditional Thai New Year. The three-day public holiday is marked by the widespread throwing of water, which takes place on a grand scale amidst joyous celebrations. Numerous other events take place alongside the annual water festival, helping to create an atmosphere of community togetherness and fun.

In the city of Chiang Mai, as well as a host of street shows, the focus of Songkran was the large gathering outside the Mays shopping centre, where a large stage hosted a wide range of performances including DJ sets, live artists, dance, and more. Handling the audio for the 10,000-strong audience in this open air setting was Bangkok-based Coconut Sound, who supplied a Coda Audio system. A customer of Coda’s Thailand distributor Modern Solutions Plus, Coconut has been a Coda Audio user since 2018, and its ViRay and AiRay systems are in constant demand across the country.

For the Chiang Mai event, which featured Thai artists J.Jetrin, Retrospect, and The Toys, Coconut Sound deployed a system comprising a main PA of 8 x AiRay and 4 x ViRay per side, with side hangs of 6 x AiRay with 4 x ViRay per side. The low end reinforcement consisted of 16 x SCP sensor controlled subwoofers with a number of  Hops8 (8’’ high output point source) units used as front fills. The system was designed by Coconut’s Wichak Chanmuang.
