The Songkran you will experience in Patong is quit different from the traditional Thai celebrations. It is more like a wild and crazy water festival. If you have not tried it before you will have a lot of fun. Even in more remote area it is getting a little out of hand.
There is a lot of information on the Internet.
You could start with Wikipedia:
Thai New Year - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Google search will provide many different sites with information:
Songkran Phuket - Google Search
You can also search YouTube, where you will find some Patong-like clips:
