Ratchadamnern Boxing Stadium

Description:

• The raw energy and power of Thai boxing must be seen to be believed. Along with Lumpini, Ratchadamnern stages the top Muay Thai fights in the country. The noisy crowds, frenzied betting and ritualistic music make this a real cultural experience. Tickets are normally sold an hour before the fights begin, although there is usually no need to purchase in advance unless a particularly important fight is on. Beware of touts and buy from the ticket booths at the stadium instead. Cost: Ringside THB1,000; general THB220.
