The Fireworks Festival in Bang Lamung will take place November 27–28, 2026 on Pattaya Beach in Chonburi Province. Over two evenings, synchronized performances by international pyrotechnic teams are planned over the sea. Guests can also look forward to an entertainment program, and concerts and food and drink stands are advertised along the promenade. The event can be combined with a stroll along the central beach and an evening relaxing by the sea.
For planning, it is important to distinguish three times: the start of the general program, the start of individual fireworks shows, and the closure of the road. According to published information, the program begins at 17:00, but the fireworks launch times differ between sources. Beach Road is expected to be closed to traffic from around 15:00 — this is preparation, not the start of the festival. So arrive early and check the announcements from the city of Pattaya before your visit. Current as of November 2026.
What will be shown at the festival
The main part of the festival is staged fireworks shows by international teams. In the official government announcement of the festival synchronized pyrotechnic performances and an entertainment program on the beach have been confirmed. The evening will not be limited to the launches themselves: live concerts and food and drink sales are also planned along the promenade.
According to the newspaper Pattaya Mail, the program runs on November 27 and 28 from 17:00 until midnight, while the first fireworks show is scheduled for 20:00. The Royal Cliff hotel gives different times for the pyrotechnic part: the shows will start between 19:15 and 19:30 and will last until 23:30. This information comes from the media and the hotel, not from an official schedule approved by the city; the timing of individual launches should not be taken as the start of the whole festival.
According to Holiday Inn, at the time of its publication no official announcement with a list of participating countries, performers, or a detailed show schedule had been found. So choosing an evening in advance for a specific team would be premature. If you want to see a particular show, check the latest announcements from the city of Pattaya closer to your visit date.
When and where
The festival will take place on Friday, November 27, and Saturday, November 28, 2026. The main venue — Pattaya Beach, Chonburi Province, Thailand. Both the dates and the location are listed in the official event listing. The benchmark start time for the general evening program is 17:00, according to the local press.
The Amari hotel describes the festival area as Central Pattaya Beach, from Bali Hai Pier to North Pattaya. This refers to a public beach, not an event inside a hotel. This reference helps convey the scale of the promenade but does not replace the official map of viewing zones.
The reference address of the beach is Nong Prue, Bang Lamung district, Chonburi Province, postal code 20150. This is the address of the beach itself, not of a separate stage or fireworks launch point. The exact location and address of a separate festival venue are not given in the official listing, so follow the city’s markings of viewing zones.
How to get there and what to know about the road closure
Beach Road is expected to be closed starting around 15:00. This is reported by both the newspaper Pattaya Mail and the Royal Cliff hotel. The restriction is related to festival preparations; it does not mean that concerts or fireworks will start at that time. If you plan to drive to the center, do not expect to be able to drive along Beach Road after the closure begins.
Check the exact map of parking, access roads, and designated viewing spots against the latest announcements from the city of Pattaya. Information about parking and concerts may be clarified closer to the event. For a general understanding of the traffic situation, see our article on traffic jams at the sea during holidays. · RU.
The site also has an article about parking and transport for the fireworks festival · RU, but earlier plans cannot be automatically carried over to 2026. Allow extra time for the trip and arrive at the beach early, especially if you want to choose a spot before the evening program begins.
Participation Terms
Along the public beach, the Bang Lamung fireworks festival provides free viewing areas. Watching the fireworks from the beach should not be confused with separate paid offers from hotels: some hotels offer dinners with a view of the show, but these are standalone services, not the cost of attending the city festival.
For a stroll along the promenade, choose comfortable shoes and keep in mind that the event takes place in the evening by the sea. Before heading out, check city announcements about parking, the concert schedule, and designated viewing areas. If you are interested in other events on the same days, take a look at the Pattaya events calendar, but check information about the festival itself against its official listing and city announcements.
