What should I wear to a Muay Thai match?

There’s no strict dress code for spectators. Wear light, casual clothes (shorts, T-shirts) and comfortable shoes. Avoid clothing with offensive graphics. It can get hot in the arena, so breathable fabrics are best.

Are children allowed at Muay Thai stadiums?

Children of all ages can attend Muay Thai fights (ticket prices are the same). Many families bring kids to early fights. Note that the arena gets loud and fights can be intense, so use ear protection for younger viewers.
