TAT highlights November and December events in Blue Zones
Throughout the Blue Zone, designated as tourist provinces that are welcoming tourists in a 7-day Sandbox scheme, events and celebrations are taking place to welcome people back to Thailand. The Tourism Authority of Thailand compiled a list of activities and highlights in November and December from these 17 zones where fully vaccinated travellers can arrive from around the world with a 7-day observation period within the province before being allowed to travel freely.
The variety of events are intended to enhance the Sandbox and the Amazing Thailand travel experience by offering fun and activities for travellers who need to stay put for the first week of their arrival into Thailand. Below is a list of some of the highlights from around Thailand in these 17 Blue Zone provinces (though the TAT notes they are subject to change without notice). All activities listed will be following Covid-19 safety and prevention measures.
