But the best thing about Carnival Magic is that it celebrates the culture and traditions of Thailand in a way that can’t be found anywhere else. From attractions to food, Carnival Magic is overflowing with all things uniquely Thai.

Inspired by the charm of Thai culture

The creator of Carnival Magic, Kittikorn Kewkacha, said that the park was inspired by the memories of growing up in Thailand, where festivals, temple fairs, and bustling marketplaces were filled with a carnival atmosphere of good-natured fun and fellowship. And that’s exactly what you’ll find here.

Carnival Magic has successfully captured the essence of all that makes Thailand so special. The concept of Sanuk – the Thai style of “having fun” – lies at the heart of this unique park. You’ll be transported to an explosive world of colour, lights, sound, and excitement as you witness the flamboyant costumes, songs, and dances that are so much a part of Thai culture.

Experience a spectacular parade show in River Palace Paradium

Through imagination and the magic of technology, Carnival Magic brings together many of Thailand’s captivating festivities and carnivals, such as the glittering grand Regal Barge within the Rival Carnival Parade Show.

An extravaganza featuring a cast of over 150 actors and 150 crew members, the Rival Carnival Parade Show will surely wow you. Inspired by the legend of Kamala, you won’t believe your eyes when you see the gigantic procession barges and flying creatures on display, as well as massive costumes towering up to 8 metres tall.

Hold onto your seats because the parade show is full of exotic carnival dancers, aerial ballet, animatronics, and jaw-dropping special effects. And the stage? It’s one of the largest stages ever constructed, with a performance space spanning an impressive 70 metres wide.

The River Palace Paradium itself is mesmerising. Designed to look like a majestic palace in the Kamala Kingdom, you’ll find two legendary elephants guarding the structure. The air-conditioned parade stadium has 2,200 seats — all set to witness theatrical events. It also features a full surround-sound audio system, sophisticated lighting and special effects, and enormous LED screens.
