The Roadshows were attended by over 120 Indian travel agents from Mumbai

To promote Pattaya and Phuket cities as ultimate getaway spots for Indian travellers and to strengthen business ties with its travel trade partners in India, the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) Mumbai Office co-hosted the Pattaya Variety Roadshow and Phuket Roadshow held on February 13 and February 15, 2023, respectively. Collectively, the Roadshows were attended by over 120 Indian travel agents from Mumbai. Held at St Regis - Mumbai, The Pattaya Variety Roadshow welcomed 18 delegates from Pattaya as well as eminent members from governing bodies, Donnawit Poolsawat, Consul-General of Royal Thai Consulate and Thitiphan Phettrakul, Deputy Mayor of Pattaya City.

The Phuket Roadshow 2023, held at The Taj Mahal Palace – Mumbai, was attended by 25 delegates from Phuket and welcomed key dignitaries such as Donnawit Poolsawat Consul General Mumbai, Thaneth Tantipiriyakij, Phuket Tourism Association President, Kanokkorn Pattaravoranee, Vice President of Events and Activities. The Roadshows served as crucial meeting points for Indian travel agents and Thai hoteliers to interact, strategize and collaborate with the aim of compelling Indians to visit emerging tourist attractions and hotels in Pattaya and Phuket cities.

Isada Saovaros, Director of the Tourism Authority of Thailand (Mumbai office), commented, “The high-octane business interactions and deals carried out during the Phuket and Pattaya Roadshow will consequently help in generating greater awareness towards emerging destinations in Thailand, which is a major part of TAT’s vision. Events as such not only help in strengthening long-term ties with our Indian travel agents but also aid them in more accurately representing burgeoning developments and tourist attractions in Thailand.”

Following the successful completion of both Roadshows, the Tourism Authority of Thailand (Mumbai) will now look forward to the ‘Amazing Thailand Festival 2023’ scheduled for March 24-26, 2023.
