If you’re already in Bangkok, getting to the Muay Thai stadiums is quiet easy. In fact, most people take a taxi, book a Grab, or use the BTS or MRT. But if you’re not yet in the city and wondering how to get to Bangkok, this guide will walk you through all the options you have. Then, once here, you can navigate your way to Lumpinee Stadium, Rajadamnern Stadium, Channel 7 Stadium, or Siam Omnoi Stadium.
International Or Domestic Flights
If you’re looking for good deals on airline tickets to Bangkok, check out the following sites:
You can fly into Bangkok from most international destinations or from within Thailand from one its domestic airports. Either way, you’ll arrive at either Don Mueang Airport or Suvarnabhumi Airport in Bangkok. From either of these locations, you can take a taxi to the stadiums or get to the nearest BTS or MRT line and then follow the directions below.

Hi, I’m John Wolcott, a former long-time English-language Muay Thai commentator who’s been living in Thailand since 2014. Over the last decade, I’ve commentated Muay Thai fights at MAX Muay Thai, Rajadamnern Muay Thai Stadium, Lumpinee Boxing Stadium, World Siam Stadium, and more. In 2022 I stepped away from commentating to focus on writing about the sport. Although I still occasionally commentate, my goal nowadays is to share with you everything I’ve learned (and continue to learn) about watching Muay Thai in Thailand so that you can have an unforgettable experience.
