Discover Pattaya
The largest MICE venue in the city is the Pattaya Exhibition and Convention Hall (PEACH), a stand-alone, multi-purpose meeting facility – more than 7,000 sq. m – that is located at the 1,090 room Royal Cliff Resort. It is the largest convention center outside of Bangkok. This 6-level building, which is constructed along the slopes of a cliff, can accommodate up to 8,000 delegates theater-style, or 3,640 banquet-style. Furthermore, the hall is flexible and can be divided into four large soundproof sections, or into 9 smaller sections. There are also 18 breakout rooms with capacities ranging from 10 to 470 delegates.
The TCEB recently organized the 1st Domestic MICE Mart (held in July of 2014), which served as a platform for targeted buyers and visitors from public and private sectors, and attracted thousands of industry travellers. Representatives from over 50 MICE venues were in attendance, as well as several dozen domestic MICE buyers.
Pattaya’s MICE industry is also being buoyed by ongoing infrastructure and tourism development, as well as growth of industrial parks, in Rayong and Chonburi. Automobile manufacturers in particular are keen to hold car launches and dealer conferences at hotels in these neighbouring areas.
