Central Pattaya, in collaboration with leading public and private sector partners, is set to create a spectacular burst of color across the skies of Pattaya Beach with the 5th edition of the international kite festival, “PATTAYA INTERNATIONAL KITE ON THE BEACH 2026”, under the concept ‘Sky Paradise of Happiness.’ The event reinforces Pattaya’s image as a ‘Top Beach Destination’ and is ready to welcome both Thai and international tourists during the high season.
Must-See Highlights: For the first time in Thailand, a spectacular gathering of character kites from renowned brands will take to the skies, led by MR. SUN, the adorable mascot of Central Pattaya, making his first-ever appearance soaring in the wind at an impressive height of 12 meters. Other highlights include the playful “Muek Groob” kite, the vibrant goodr flamingo kite, the 3-meter-tall PEA mascot kite, and more than 150 uniquely designed international kites from 12 countries around the world. Together, they will paint the summer sky with color along over one kilometer of Pattaya Beach.
The festival also features a variety of exciting activities, including the MR. SUN character kite painting workshop, and a “Shop, Taste, Chill” experience with over 30 street food vendors in a relaxed beachfront atmosphere. Shoppers can enjoy exclusive promotions, including a chance for the top spender of the campaign (minimum spending of THB 500,000) to win a luxurious trip to Hong Kong. Special privileges are also available for international customers, who will receive a complimentary Premium Tea Ritual when spending THB 30,000 or more.* (Terms and conditions apply as determined by the company.)
