Escape Thailand’s mid-summer heat and cool off at “Cha-am Summer Fun Fest 2014”

BANGKOK – Mr. Somchai Chompoonoi, Executive Director, Central Region Market Division of TAT said, “April is one of the hottest months in Thailand, as well as one of the most celebrated, as this is the mid-point of the long Thai school holidays as well as the time when Thais and foreigners alike flock to this country to enjoy the Thai New Year (Songkran) festival.”
 

“The Cha-am Summer Fun Fest 2014 is being organised to showcase how Cha-am is more than ready to welcome local and international tourists with a range of international standard accommodation and restaurants, as well as a variety of natural, historical and cultural attractions in the town and surrounding area. There are a lot of fun activities on offer to suit all tourist groups, from those travelling with families and groups of friends to young couples seeking a romantic getaway.”
 

The festival will feature concerts by leading Thai artists and hip hop bands, including Joey Boy, Zero Hero, Abuse the Youth, and Hipster. In addition, there will be a fashion show featuring well-known Japanese models as well as a dancing performance by the Cyber Japanese Dancer, and many other enjoyable stage entertainments.
