No Fire Works in Pattaya Where to go on NYE ??????????

[kingstonkid]

Was ;looking forward to going and being part of the mob watching the Fireworks.  

 

Seems that although not mentioned here they have been cancelled.

 

Any other suggestions as to what to do on NYE in Patts

[KannikaP]

Go out for a few cocktails, a nice meal, a few more bevvies then home to watch all the fireworks around the world on telly whilst rumpy pumpy in between cities.

So what were you hoping for in Pattaya which isn't in Bkk? Don't they have fireworks there?

Or maybe a change in r-p participant eh!

[tomazbodner]

You like to scare animals and inhale sulfur?

I wouldn't be surprised to see Bangkok follow suit.

 

 

 

Although a lot of people are heavily invested in pyrotechnics.

Yep for LOADS of Thais the masks are here to stay until death do them part...But like you say even the death part is questionable....

This has nothing to do with Covid

They have fireworks in almost every major city in the World.

In fact the fireworks are STANDARD.   555

Events in Bkk have already been cancelled, it will only get worse

The greatest show in Thailand wil be in Bangkok The Grand Phenomenon of Eco-friendly Fireworks Performance

You can bet all such activities are/will be cancelled.

There was a confusing message about Chonburi in a thread yesterday but also 100% confirmed for Pattaya:

https://thepattayanews.com/2022/12/22/new-year-countdown-fireworks-canceled-in-pattaya/

And even a reason stated now telling half of the story.

It is just a couple of mask obsessed dullards with nothing constructive to say...

 

I have not yet seen a topic saying NYE Fireworks in Pattaya were cancelled.... I did read one saying Chonburi had cancelled them, could be the City, could be the Province,, but Pattaya is a separate administration.  This thread suggests Bangkok has cancelled them.... is that true or not?

Ah.. just seen the topic about Pattaya cancellation.

I get my fireworks and happy ending on Soi 22

[MrJ2U]

I hear there's a few bars and a one or two gogo bars. 

 

They'll be plenty of private fireworks.

Company has changed name but still in Huddersfield.

[Matthew2027]

Read between the lines people....... BIG announcement coming........ Stock up on grog, get the Black out of the wardrobe...... Keeping it until after Christmas / NY so not to upset the 1st high season to much!!!! 

[kingstonkid]

For those that do not know this is because the princess had a heart attack. They only say she is stable so I think Matthew may be right 

[Doctor Tom]

New Year is a meaningless, history generated nonsense, that sees half the World celebrating yet another 12 O'clock while the rest wait to do the same when their clock hits 12 midnight. If it had any sense to it at all, it would be at 12 midnight UTC on 31st December, regardless of where you are in the World, but of course, that makes too much sense.  To answer the OP, its a normal day, no different to any other, so do what you normally do. 

[jcmj]

All my Thai friends know this is due to the seriousness of the illness of the princess. Nothing to do with Covid. I know it’s a common excuse for everything, but not this time. The Thais love their princess and feel there should be no celebration during this time. I have a feeling that Mathew unfortunately may be correct.

Now owned by a Chinese parent Company (Black Cat Fireworks). I used to place the insurance for the Huddersfield location. They needed to sell a lot of bangers to cover the cost of that. 

[Skeptic7]

Been loads of fireworks in Patts recently. Some sort of fireworks & music festival. What's up with cancelling NYE ⁉️ OH YEAH...TIT.

Having gone into central Pattaya on NYE many times in the past, I would not recommend it. Putting up with the crowds and traffic is not a great way to start the year. I didn't know they had cancelled the fire works on the hill, but either way, it's a lousy night to go there.
