There are a lot of folk tales about the origin of the festival. Here is one. Long long ago, there lived a tyrant in the Dai village. He stopped at no evil. He burned, killed and looted wherever he went. No one could get rid of him, because he was very powerful. He was afraid of neither water nor fire. One day, he came across a beautiful Dai girl. He already had six wives and he wanted that girl as his seventh. So he married her. His wives, all kind-hearted women, utterly detested the barbarous acts of the tyrant and decided to kill him in order to protect the innocent people. However, they were too weak to challenge him. They had to wait.
One day, the tyrant came back with lots of trophies. That night, he got drunk. The seventh wife, his favorite, thought it was the right time to act. "Your Majesty," she said to the tyrant, "You're the strongest person in the world. So, you can live as long as you want." The tyrant was overjoyed. Being drunk, he was not as cautious as usual. "My dear," he said, "I have a fatal weakness. If my hair twists around my neck, I'll die." His wife memorized those words. When the tyrant fell asleep, the women began to act. They twisted his hair around his neck, and the tyrant died. But as soon as his head feel onto the ground, a big fire began. The women had no choice but to hold his head with their hands, doing it in turns, one for a year. Each time one wife finished her turn and passed on the head, the others would splash water on her to wash away bloodstains. Water splashing became a symbol of good luck, a way to wish good fortune to strangers, friends and family alike.

泼水节是傣族最富民族特色的节日。有许多关于这个节日来源的传说，其中有一个是这样的：很早很早以前，傣族的村子里有一个凶恶的魔王，他烧杀抢掠、无恶不作，没有人能够制服他，因为他法力过人并且水火不侵。一天他看到了一个漂亮的傣族女孩，虽然他已经有六位妻子但他仍想把她霸占为妻。于是，他又把她抢来，作了他的第七个妻子。他的妻子们都是些心肠很好的女人，她们合计着如何杀死魔王来保护无辜的人们。然而，她们太过于柔弱，她们只有慢慢等待机会。
一天，魔王带着许多战利品回来。那晚，魔王喝得酩酊大醉，他最喜欢的第七个妻子认为时机已经到了。她对魔王称颂道：“我尊贵的大王，您是世界上最强的人，所以，您可以得到永生”。魔王听了洋洋得意，他说：“我有一个致命的弱点，如果拔我的头发勒我的脖子，我就会死。”姑娘记住了他的话，在他熟睡时，她拔下魔王一根头发，勒住他的脖子。果然，魔王的头就掉了下来，变成一团火球，滚到哪里，邪火就蔓延到哪里。竹楼被烧毁，庄稼被烧焦。姑娘们没有办法，只能没人轮流抱着他的头，一年交换一次。每当交换时其他人要向她泼水，洗掉她身上的血迹。后来泼水成了一种好运的象征，向陌生人、朋友、家人泼水是对他们的一种祝福。
泼水节在在公历4月中旬，历时3~5天。泼水节这一天人们要拜佛，姑娘们用漂着鲜花的清水为佛洗尘，然后彼此泼水嬉戏，相互祝愿。起初用手和碗泼水，后来便用盆和桶，边泼边歌。泼水节期间，还要举行赛龙船、放高升、放飞灯等传 统娱乐活动和各种歌舞晚会。
