Event and Concert Licensing in Thailand

Event and Concert Licensing with SiamConsult

Planning to host a music festival, public performance, or large-scale event?
You’ll need an Event & Concert License to operate legally in Thailand, especially if your event features amplified sound, ticket sales, use of public spaces, or attracts large crowds.

This license is usually managed at the provincial or district level and often requires additional approvals, such as noise permits, public safety plans, event insurance, and police coordination.
Whether you’re organizing a beachfront party, a charity concert, or a commercial festival, obtaining the right license is crucial to avoid shutdowns or fines.
