PRE AND POST EVENTS

Nooch also boasts a renowned cultural show with
dance and music from the various regions of Thailand,
together with religious activities, festivals and martial
arts. With elephants playing an important part in Thai
heritage, the Amazing Elephant Show is also a true
highlight.

A short distance away is Ripley’s World of Entertainment,
and this has expanded from its original concept as
Ripley’s Believe It Or Not! Museum to provide other
attractions such as Ripley’s 4D Moving Theatre,
Ripley’s Infinity Maze, and Louis Tussaud’s Waxworks.
Another feature is Ripley’s Haunted Adventure, this
uses Thai actors trained by the Scare School in the US.

Pattaya is also the location for the Tiffany’s Show. This
is a hugely popular transvestite cabaret which is set in
a 1,000-seat theatre. It has delighted world audiences
for many years with its exquisitely costumed musical
revues. Running for more 33 years is the Alcazar
Cabaret show also in Pattaya.

Cabaret shows are featured strongly in other parts
of Thailand too with a number of spectacular
performances staged around the country including
Bangkok, Phuket, Krabi, Samui and Chiang Mai.
There are two major cabarets in Chiang Mai. First the
relatively new Miracle Cabaret show, which is not to
be confused with the Chiang Mai Cabaret show. In
Bangkok is the Mambo show, one of the oldest and
most famous in the city.
