Pattaya music festival aka bazaar on the Beach road


Recommended Posts

Again an event to make the city a copy of the Thepprasit night bazaar and impossible to get anywhere to the south using the songthaews.... so, following my spa day in Naklua I walked from the Dolphin roundabut to the school on Pattaya Tai to get home to Jomtien... I made a lunch + movie break in the Central festival, so my pix were made between the two mentioned destination....

Yes, this is just the way they do it in Miami and Nice...close the major access to the central night life area and block with it a multitude of vendors selling the same items repeated every 100m.

 

There must be a lot of money being handed over to someone for those vendor spots...they aren't free, and somebody is making a quick baht or two.

Quite right, I suppose we have to go with our hosts and grin/bear it, but this retail and Beach Road closure is a royal pain in the arse for anybody wanting to get anywhere reasonably fast. In view of the one-way system on the major north-south road (2nd Road) nearest to the action, closing Beach Road is a major nuisance to all. Certainly someone is making big Baht from this endless row of vendors selling more-or-less the same crap, so that in itself justifies the whole thing I suppose. No real complaints though, we chose to be here and can only look on with bemusement.

Bad time to be a chicken I thought looking at the pics.

 

Then I thought worse time to be a male pig with all the BBQ pork balls on sale.

Got me thinking......... Where exactly on the chicken do they get the nuggets from??

 

.........And where can you get the baseball caps with the peaks at the back??.........And I can never spot the camoflage shorts when I want to buy a pair..........and.......oh my nurse is calling.........again.

Great pictures Gabor!

I like the close up shots, you can almost smell the food!

 

I also took a few pictures last night from Royal Garden Plaza down to Walking Street.

Hope you don't mind I put them up here in your thread!

Here are a few pics I took too, really like the ones above here. I posted a review of the music festival, there's also a link to Da Endorphine singing Adele's 'Rolling in the Deep', which was pretty damn good.

 

 

Thanks for the enthusiastic description of the festival (on your linked page), but I can't find the link to any video...would you post the video link here?

Yes, would love to see the video too. My Thai friends told me Da is the best female singer of Thailand at the moment.
