tomyami Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 the 7/11 bars that remain open will be busy, beach road awash with street food vendors packing 4/5 into hotel rooms, will seem like high seasons started. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they mean performers ? I can't see how they will be able to "rapid test" everyone attending before entry...unless they are only expecting a handful of attendees ?

Music festivals are popular all over the world and Thailand is no exception. But you can trust the resident fun police on this forum to have think otherwise. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has a lot more than 'Thai' music with a wide range of musicians performing numerous, different genres. It is usually very good indeed with a great atmosphere. Pattaya is a great place for festivals, parties and outdoor celebrations with about one event every fortnight around Beach Road. However, the grumpy, joyless dullards and professional sadsters will no doubt moan at the idea of people enjoying themselves...lol!

Partenavia Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 It's no doubt a good idea, get some fun back into life again. However, masks and a maximum of 500 people are potentially going to kill it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DefaultName Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 These tests are rapid, not instant. Where are they going to stack people while they wait for the results? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps they worry about the likelihood of elevated infections and deaths and a possible return to the misery of lockdown in Pattaya.... it has been suffered long enough. These events are great while you are up near the stage.... the bedlam and shambles getting there, and away, is another matter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sucit Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 I feel sorry for youngsters. The entire generation’s youth is being whittled away by a bunch of pensioners with bad cases of hemrohoids. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leaver Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 Why hold the event before Pattaya is back in full swing? What's the point? This event could have kicked off the full reopening of Pattaya, particularly for domestic tourism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
