Paul Kanjanapas stated that the centre was going to plough in THB3.5 billion on the expansion. The team have set aside THB200 million to build the lakeside theme park and Mr Kanjanapas said this would allow conference and exhibition attendees to bring their children with them.
He explained that IMPACT was working with the Sanderson Group on the theme park. The Australian developers have previously coordinated new theme parks in Singapore and Tokyo.
The mall will also be lakeside and will contain a cinema in addition to a collection of dining and shopping outlets. Accor is due to open its ibis Bangkok IMPACT Hotel in the complex later in 2016. This establishment will add 587 rooms to those offered by the nearby Eastin Lakeside and Novotel IMPACT hotels.

The IMPACT Arena has an audience capacity of 12,000 and is Thailand’s concert stage. The likes of Elton John, Blondie and Maroon 5 have graced IMPACT’s stage.
