Pattaya International Fireworks Festival Is Back This Year!

After a 2-year gap for the mourning period over the beloved King, Pattaya International Fireworks Festival is back again. This year, though, it will hit the city on June, 8-9, instead of November. 

Arguarbly the most colourful and impressive events of the year, the festival is traditionally held in Pattaya Bay. This year contestants have not yet been announced, yet in the previous years the festival saw absolutely amazing fireworks brought to Pattaya by maestros of light and bright from China, Hong Kong, Japan, Italy, Spain, Germany, UK and more.

The fireworks are fired from three huge floating platforms or boats right in front of Pattaya Central Beach thus some of the best spots to watch the show will be either on the beach where visitors will be able to rent beach chairs or from one of a few bar and restaurant terraces with a front view of the bay, including venues in Hilton Hotel and Central Festival Pattaya Beach, FoodWave in Royal Garden Plaza and more.

For a different experience head to the helipad or Hollywood-style gigantic PATTAYA letters on Pratamnak Hill or try your luck up the roof of one of the high-rise condominiums located in the North or Naklue area. 

During the festival several stages will be set along the Beach Road from which singers and other performers will entertain the public. The event is totally free and will start at 6pm on the both dates.
