They should close Beach road all year to private cars and motorcycles and just let people park in these lots. 

Allow a finite number of Songthaews and hotel shuttles 

Allow delivery trucks in only before 11am 

Move all the motorcycle "rental" scammers who set up business for free along Beach road 

 

Would be a good move for making the Beach area a family friendly and safe destination. 

Every 2 months theres a New gang of Homeless Gangers sleeping on the Beach across from Mikes Mall ...100 loals know the Gang and Fear them. Drugs, Drugs, Drugs....move them Out,, or back to PRISON.... COPS DO YOUR JOB ! ! !

Nonesense. You must be scared of your own shadow.  They are just poor itinerant workers.

Yes, there are displays from China, UK, Singapore, etc etc. Good evening out although getting anywhere is difficult.

The best seats cost 200 Baht IIRC, at the bottom of Klang. Free concert from a Thai band when it is all done. Others (me included) can slink off to a nearby bar.

Great show/competition, been 

Watching it for years although i have missed it the last year.

Back in the hay days of pattis when us farang ruled the scene, there were Great Firework everyday in christmas at 20 oclock fra Bali hay pier. Those were the days my friend, i thought they never end.

Usually around 8.30-9pm People will be setting mats on the Beach before 8pm. There are 2 sets of shows. Thais make quite a party out of it and bring snacks, I take a small cold box of beer!
