Staged with a 10 million baht budget from Pattaya City Hall , expect it to be something special!
The carnival kicks off at |
Dolphin Traffic Circle in NorthPattaya and moves on to Bali Hai Pier, pausing at Pattaya Klang Sai Sam and Walking Street before moving further into South Pattaya . Highlights of the carnival will be a Vespa motorcycle and car parade, a fancy dress parade for Thais and foreigners, and a major parade featuring marching bands and carnival floats. 25 February sees local country singers Dao Mayuree and Apaporn Nakhon Sawan display their talents alongside the first round of the Miss Pattaya Carnival 2006 pageant, while 26 February features more live music shows and the final round of the pageant. |
The proceedings will be covered by local television and press and there will be a series of ‘side-events' including a sandcastle competition, an exhibition of goods created through the ‘One Tambon One Product' (OTOP) scheme (locally produced goods) and amateur sports. If you are in Thailand over the period of the carnival it's a good reason to build Pattaya into your itinerary! |
