The Colors of the East festival that returned to Pattaya Beach impressed Thai and foreign tourists especially those who were fans of local foods and products. The event was held on the central part of the beach from March 30-April 2 (Thursday-Sunday).
The festival showcased tourism and locally made products from four eastern provinces: Chonburi, Rayong, Chachoengsao and Trat.
This year’s festival featured more than 60 booths offering tours, hotel packages and attractions tickets. Each day also featured concerts from Yes’sir Day, Kaimook the Voice, Bam Pailin and Prang Prangthip.
The festival was split into three zones: Sunset Market, Cheerful Zone and Colorful Stage on the Beach.
Each province had a ‘tropical pop art’ exhibit highlighting unique features of each region. Chonburi did a display showing off the sea and handmade baskets. The fair started in the afternoon and ran until 11pm. on each day.
