Thai Fest 2025: Great Food, Great Vibes, Even Better Weather
The festival was officially inaugurated on December 4 by H.E. the Ambassador of the Kingdom of Thailand to Bahrain, who opened the event with a ceremonial launch. This was followed by a touching documentary tribute dedicated to Her Majesty Queen Sirikit, showcasing her lifelong commitment to cultural preservation, traditional craftsmanship, and the safeguarding of Thailand’s artistic heritage.
Throughout the event, visitors enjoyed an array of authentic experiences that brought Thailand’s cherished traditions to Bahrain. One of the biggest highlights was the incredible selection of Thai food stalls, an absolute crowd favourite. Under the cool December sky, attendees loved exploring all their favourite Thai food spots gathered in one place, featuring well-loved names such as Savoey Thai Restaurant, Shada Restaurant, Tom Yum Kung Talay Thai, Fried Thai Spice, Thai Spoon Restaurant & Café, Top Thai Restaurants, and many more. The pleasant weather created the perfect backdrop, allowing visitors to comfortably wander from stall to stall, enjoying the full spectrum of Thai flavours.
Beyond the food, the festival buzzed with traditional dance and music performances, live Muay Thai demonstrations, handcrafted goods by Thai artisans, wellness activities, and a beautifully recreated Loy Krathong experience allowing families to participate in Thailand’s iconic light-floating tradition.
Adding to the excitement, visitors also had the chance to win a flight to Thailand, keeping spirits high and energy buzzing across all three days.
And while the festival delivered on culture, cuisine, and entertainment, the real showstopper had to be the weather. The cool, breezy December evenings elevated the entire atmosphere, making the experience even more memorable and highlighting just how perfectly Bahrain’s winter complemented the festivities.
With its rich blend of flavours, performances, craftsmanship, and family-friendly fun, enhanced by flawless weather, the Thai Festival 2025 not only showcased the beauty of Thai culture but also celebrated the warm and enduring friendship between Thailand and Bahrain, leaving guests with lasting memories and a deeper appreciation of Thai heritage.
