Information about Bangkok annual Red Cross Fair
The Annual Thai Red Cross Fair takes place every December at Lumphini Park in Bangkok, offering 12 days and 12 nights of fun activities for all ages, from 11:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m.
This iconic event, first held 101 years ago during the reign of King Vajiravudh (Rama VI), is a must-see celebration for locals and visitors alike. The program includes:
- stalls selling special-priced products,
- games,

All proceeds go to the Thai Red Cross Society to support its humanitarian efforts for those in need.
It’s a very popular event, but for discovering Thai cuisine, traditions, and crafts from every region of Thailand, it’s absolutely worth it!
