Hua Hin shakes off its low season blues, 12 to 14 June, every year for its international jazz festival at sites on the beach and in the centre of this laid back resort town that graces Thailand’s western coast of the Gulf of Thailand.
Hua Hin is approximately 220 km from Bangkok (see maps) and is noted for being the country’s first beach resort discovered by royalty and nobility in the post war years when the only feasible way to reach its golden beaches was by steam train.
Today, it is a popular beach town with more than its far share of five-star hotels.
One of the main jazz festival stages is set up close to the Sofitel Centara Grand Resort & Villas Hua Hin, a heritage property dating back to early 1900s and Marriott Resort & Spa Hua Hin.
In all, there are three stages for the jazz festival on the beach and in the town near the historical railway station and another near Phone Kingpet complex.
Of course, the beach venue serves up a winning ambience as thousands of jazz lovers sit on deck chairs or mats laid out on the sand and enjoy the very best selections of traditional and modern jazz.
All performances during the three-day festival are free and continue from 15:30 until midnight.
