  2. Noen Khum Thong Stadium

    Fights occur on the first Saturday of the month, or the second Saturday if the first Saturday is a wan prá (Buddhist worship day; full or new moon). The venue changes from time to time, but lately they've been held at Noen Khum Thong Stadium on the way to the airport. Check dates and venues with the TAT office.
