Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Entry is 600,000 for the standard seats. Would recommend these over the more expensive seats as the view really isn’t anything different. The VIP area is also behind some not very clean window so your view is impaired. Standard tickets are best.
The boxing itself was really good fun and it was great for a first time experience. There are 7 fights in total, some of which are international fights. Overall would absolutely recommend coming here for a fun night of boxing.
NB don’t place a bet with the people who offer you bets, as they will always choose the winner.

Every fight is fake and fixed. It's a complete waste of money and a mockery to Muy Thai. The bookies work the crowd to see if they can find drunk tourists to bet on fixed fights. Don't go here.

Terible experience. No real fight. Just few kids playing around, at the first punch they go to the ground and stop fighting even if nothing happened.
All flight took less than 5 min, but around 1h with all the songs and comments.
Not Worth. TOURIST TRAP

The worst experience in thailande i have done!!! 6 fight 5ko in the first minute (one after 10seconde). If it was due to good level it would be ok but it wasnt. The fighter look like 14 15 years old and everytime they got hit its over. I didnt saw any good punch. Really don't go there !!! Even for free i would move the stadium after the second fight !!!

I’ve been to a few kickboxing stadiums and I can say this one is one of the better ones. It’s in a more interesting location. There’s no match fixing because money is made from tourists buying entry tickets. Even the quality of fighting is better, but understand that how hard the fighters fight depends on their circumstances. Farang fights are cool to watch but there may not always be one. There was also only one kid fight, the fewer the better. They’re not appropriate for tourist venues.

It wasn't the cheapest, but for 400bht (we bought on store of muay thai items on the same street and they always make a 100bht discount to stadium-door-tickets) you get to watch 5 matches: kids, teens/young adults, women, main and international. As tourists, we loved the thrill and vibe of the matches and crowd. The only downside was the massive fan pointed to us that couldn't be moved and I almost got a cold. To be fair, they did offer another seats, but we're worse, so we remained. I reccommend going at start (9pm), because it's really fun!

Amateur fights, so it's hardly the best you'll ever see. But it's a short walk from anywhere in the Old City, serves good food at low prices, and has ample cold beer for sale.
Buy the cheap seats. There's no reason to spend more to sit three feet closer to the ring.

Great for an evening event that showcases Muay Thai. For us, it was 5 matches total starting with two young adult marches (think 14-16), followed by a men's match, a women's match, then capped by another YA match. I am not a professional martial artist by any means, but it did not look staged at all contrary to what many reviewers are saying. These fighters went hard with brutal attacks and bloody KOs. It was honestly a little disturbing watching teens beat the snot out of each other... Don't know what those "this is staged" people are looking for beyond what is already there...
Anyway the ambiance is rowdy, the announcer is lively, and the beer is not expensive. The other spectators were from all over the world and it was fun meeting our neighbors for the evening.
Overall would definitely recommend going once. The 500 baht general admission was fine as the area is relatively small so the ring is clearly visible from every seat.

I believe they have fights every day of the week. Check for the posters around town or stop into one of the ticket vendors.
