If you are planning a trip to Phuket Island and are interested in experiencing the national sport in Thailand, discover the best boxing stadiums to watch Muay Thai fights in Phuket, where you will enjoy a true professional match and understand more about this part of Thai culture during your trip to Thailand.
To experience the fight night of Muay Thai in Phuket, you can mainly choose from 4 boxing stadiums:
Location of Phuket Muay Thai Stadiums
The two main Thai boxing stadiums are located in Patong, not too far from Patong Beach. Actually, they are only about 1.1 km apart, so getting there is equally convenient from most areas in Phuket.
The other two smaller venues are located in Rawai on the southeastern side of Phuket.
Facilities at Phuket Muay Thai stadiums
Facilities at Phuket Muay Thai stadiums vary quite a lot.
Patong Boxing Stadium is the largest air-conditioned Muay Thai stadium in Phuket. The stadium is well-equipped and offers more comfort due to being more spacious.
Bangla Boxing Stadium is a slightly smaller venue that might feel a little too crammed in terms of sitting space, but it brings everybody closer to the ring to enjoy the experience. As there's no air-conditioning, the stadium can get really hot, even if there are lots of fans to cool you down.
Rawai Boxing Stadium is a smaller venue at Rawai Muay Thai Boxing Camp in the Rawai Beach area of Phuket. It can get quite hot inside, but there are many fans inside to cool the crowd down.
Sinbi Boxing Stadium is one of the newest Muay Thai stadiums in Phuket, located inside the Sinbi Muay Thai Training camp in the Rawai Beach area. The stadium has the capacity to seat 400 to 500 people and is air-conditioned.
Seating at Phuket Muay Thai Stadiums
All stadiums in Phuket have standard stadium seat and ringside seat options, while one of them is also offering VIP seats with additional perks that should provide bigger comfort.
Standard seats are hard and not very comfortable at all venues. At Patong Boxing Stadium, there are hard wooden bleachers with no back support, while at Bangla Boxing Stadium, you sit on metal benches that now have some padding for more comfort. The cheapest seats at Rawai Boxing Stadium are concrete steps, while at Sinbi Boxing Stadium the stadium seating is set on bleachers. As the fight night takes about 2-3 hours, you might prefer getting a more comfortable ringside seat instead.
You can normally have a good view from standard stadium seats at all stadiums. However, it's better to arrive 20 minutes or so earlier to get a better seat.
At all stadiums, the ringside seats are much comfier than the standard ones and are closer to the ring. Another bonus is that you don't need to arrive earlier to ensure that you are getting a seat. Just make sure to book your ringside seats in advance, as they often sell out.
At Rawai Boxing Stadium, you can also choose a VIP seat, which is a comfortable sofa. These seats usually come with some gifts, such as a free drink.
