How will this affect traffic? Is it a big deal or not? I just saw it mentioned on Bell Bus site. I wasn't able to re-open the the pop-up on their start page to see which roads were closed.

It's a big deal, Bell Bus would not Bell Bus would not bother posting if it wasn't. Beach Road will be totally closed to traffic from about 4 pm until after midnight. In addition there will be a lot of traffic coming into Pattaya. Don't plan on getting around Pattaya quickly during that weekend.

I need to pay closer attention. I thought the pop up said May 20-22 which I thought were odd midweek dates. I asked because I will be there that week in May. Thanks for the quick response.

The international music festival dates are March 20-22 which is Fri-Sun. Traffic will suck big time. Here's a video from i believe Bali Hai pier.

I like e in a town that depends on tourism so I shouldn't really complain, but another dogs breakfast on a Beach Rd and walking to work along the beach.

I highly doubt mongers are flying in just for this festival, the majority of tourism over this weekend will be Thai's and i can't see them filling up the beer bars and gg's. Bars will remain the same as if there was no festival, traffic however will still suck
