Pattaya is recognized across the globe for its beautiful beaches
and a vibrant nightlife. In addition to the well-known tourist attractions, the
Thailand city proudly hosts a wide variety of sporting events and competitions
each year, attracting competitors and spectators from around the world. With so
much to offer visitors, it is no surprise that Pattaya has become a prime
location for both local and international sporting events.
The coastal city proudly hosts the Top of the Gulf Regatta every
year. Among the largest sailing events in Thailand, it is the only multi-class
sailing event in the area. The Top of Gulf Regatta began in 2005 and is held
annually in the beginning of May over the course of four days. The event is
scheduled in 2017 starting on May 4th.
Pattaya also holds the annual King’s
Cup Jet Ski World Cup in early December. The King’s Cup features five days of
races with competitors coming from around the globe for the popular waterfront
event. Held in Pattaya City, this year’s event starts on December 1st and continues
through December 4th.
In addition to the water-related events, Pattaya hosts an annual
marathon. The Pattaya Marathon is an international event attracting runners
near and far. Held in July, it includes a full, half, and quarter marathon, as
well as a micro marathon fun run and wheel chair marathon. The 2016 event
received about 15,000 applicants.
With over 20 golf courses, Pattaya is a prime location for golf
enthusiasts. One of the courses in Pattaya, the old course at the Siam Country
Club, proudly holds the annual LPGA (Ladies Professional Golf Association)
Thailand tournament. First held in 2006, the February event expanded into a
well-known tournament receiving national media attention. The tournament
attracts some of the biggest names in golf and offers a prize fund of $1.6
million (U.S).
If visitors are looking for a unique sporting competition with a
local flair and rich history, then the Chonburi Buffalo Racing is the perfect
event. This event is held annually and features a variety of contests. Around
for over 140 years, this culturally rich event attracts both tourists and
locals.
In addition to the annual sporting competitions, Pattaya offers
an endless list of local sporting events every week. A big attraction for
visitors, these events include crowd favorites such as boxing, taekwondo, and
mixed martial arts. Additionally, local facilities often hold a variety of
amateur sporting events each month, ranging from bowling and softball to
badminton and cricket.
