The tournament isn’t all competition and no fun. Along with the matches, there’s a festival-like atmosphere with live music, food stalls and a variety of entertainment options. The event aims to provide an enjoyable experience for the entire community, celebrating sport, culture and fun.
The tournament is also expected to boost tourism and the local economy of Pattaya.
