Inaugural Bangkok Elephant Boat Race and River Festival to Take Place 29-31 March 2019

[FHD video and podcast below] Minor Hotels will host the very first Bangkok Elephant Boat Race and River Festival in March 2019.

In this interview, filmed at the Avani+ Riverside Hotel on 31 January 2019, Tim Boda of Minor Hotels unveils previously undisclosed details about the exciting event which will be used to raise money in support of elephant conservation and welfare in Thailand.

Tim tells us when the Bangkok Elephant Boat Race and River Festival will take place, what its goals are, how it is going to be set up and where the people racing the boats will be coming from.

You will also learn how much the event expects to raise for charity, which charity the money will be going to, what time each day will start and end, and how much the different tickets are going to cost.

We also discuss entertainment, and Tim tells us what guests can expect from the many different F&B components of the event, as well as which bands they have signed and if more are expected.

Steven asks what happens if the smog that blankets much of Bangkok and neighbouring provinces at the moment is still around at the end of March, and if there will be any activities in which guests can get involved. All that and much, much more in the interview.
