Siam Piwat joins Bangkok Pride Festival 2026 press conference, signs MOU for WorldPride 2030 bid at the Bangkok Art and Culture Centre (BACC)

Siam Piwat Group participated in the Bangkok Pride Festival 2026 press conference and signed an MOU to formalize the preparation of bidding materials for hosting WorldPride 2030 at the Bangkok Art and Culture Centre (BACC) on March 26, 2026. Naruemit Pride, in collaboration with the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) and partners across the civil, public, and private sectors, is set to transform Silom, the city’s central business district, into a rainbow road for the Bangkok Pride Festival 2026. Under this year’s theme “Patch the World with Pride,” the event will see Silom Road blanketed with a massive 300-meter rainbow flag and transformed into a space for equality, demonstrating support from all sectors and marking a historic milestone both for Thailand and the world.

This year’s parade is set to cover a historic 4.8-kilometer route, starting at Chong Nonsi Canal Park (Phase 2) and heading into Silom, the long-standing cultural heart and historical neighborhood of the LGBTQ+ community. The procession will then move through the Sala Daeng and Henri Dunant intersections onto Rama 1 Road, passing Siam Paragon, Siam Center, and Siam Discovery, before concluding at the Pathum Wan Intersection to commemorate the starting point of Bangkok Gay Pride back in 2002.

A major highlight will be the Pride Stage at Thephasadin Stadium, featuring the legendary “Rabiab Wathasilp” Mor Lam troupe, who will convey the essence of Thai culture through a Mor Lam performance that captures the resilience and heritage of the LGBTQ+ community in rural areas. By blending the soft power of traditional folk music with the human rights movement, the festival is set to create a powerful global impact, proudly asserting Bangkok’s potential and readiness to host WorldPride 2030.
