MAX Muay Thai Stadium

MAX Muay Thai Stadium is Pattaya’s main Muay Thai venue, a purpose-built arena on Sukhumvit Road in Nong Prue, close to King Power Pattaya. Fights are advertised seven nights a week, with a three-round card of about four to five bouts that starts at 19:00 on weekdays and about 19:45 at weekends and finishes around 20:45. That makes it the easiest Muay Thai night in Pattaya if you want fights without a midnight finish.

It is also a TV show. The weekday cards are broadcast live at 19:00 Monday to Friday on True Ball Thai 5 and the TrueVisions NOW app, under the name MAX Muay Thai: The Global Fight. The stadium opened in November 2014 and cut its bouts to three rounds; a fire destroyed the venue in February 2016.

What a night is like

Each bout opens with the wai khru ram muay, the ritual dance, then goes three rounds. The cards the stadium posted in early October 2026 list a main event, a co-main and three supporting bouts, pairing Thai fighters with opponents from France, Myanmar, England and Australia. With three rounds a bout and four to five bouts a night, the whole show is over in under two hours.

Seating is sold as one tier, the VIP seat, and one seller says the exact seat is confirmed by ticket staff on the day. We could not confirm from the stadium whether the arena is air-conditioned, so ask your seller. The show is short enough that dinner afterwards is realistic.

Tickets

A ticket partner site lists one seat type, the VIP seat, from about 1,500 THB in October 2026. Booking sites such as Viator sell the same fights, and we list the Viator options on this page where they meet our standards. Read your voucher: one seller’s exchange instructions say to take the voucher to a ticket counter by the gate and swap it for a physical ticket, and one says visitors must carry a passport copy for identification.

Cancellation and date-change rules are set by the seller, not the stadium. Several sellers state that sales are final, so confirm your date before paying.

Insider Tip: Weekday and weekend start times differ by about 45 minutes. If you are booking a weekend, check the 19:45 first bout on your voucher before you plan dinner.

Watch out: Sellers list the same stadium under several names, including “MAX Muay Thai Gym”. They are the same arena on Sukhumvit Road. Check the date and seat tier on the confirmation rather than the product name.

Getting there

The stadium is at 42/108 Moo 9 on Sukhumvit Road (given as Pattaya Soi 42), close to King Power Pattaya and the Central Pattaya Road junction. From the beachfront it is a short taxi, Grab or songthaew (shared pickup truck taxi) ride rather than a walk. Central Festival Pattaya Beach is about 1.6 km away, which is a handy dinner stop either side of the show. After the card finishes around 20:45, Pattaya Walking Street is the obvious next stop.
