Didn’t see the love festival on koh Samet being listed on here , consideing it is a COMPLETE list for Bangkok and the rest of Thailand. Good idea, but a bit more advance notice would also be an improvement.
Most of these I’ve either tweeted about or blogged over the last week or two. This is a round-up. I posted it Saturday morning this time but will do it on Friday night in future. It’s going to be mainly Bangkok centric as that is where I’m based. I will try and make it more extensive next time.
Hey It’s OK , I know that these things are often difficult to track over here,I only found out about the love fest thing on samet on friday, and I am close to it down here in rayong. This is of course due to the way that Thailand advertises events, which is kind of ironic when you think of the multitude of students going to or have been to University to study Marketing, don’t you think?
TAT wants to push events like these, then push them in different languages in the ads, all too often roadside banners are in Thai only, in fact i can here an event going on near my apartment as I am typing this ,I have no idea what it is, and this happens regularly around Thailand.
Keep up the good work , if i get to hear of anything else down this way i shall try to inform you so you can ad to the list.
And ofcourse there is thai football, all over Thailand and in Bangkok too
Wow, so many events this weekend. Thais are so lucky. Must come over next year around this time.
