Thai Baht (THB). Exchange rates in Pattaya money changers are better than at the airport. Visa/Mastercard accepted everywhere.

We recommend having 5,000-10,000 THB in cash for small expenses. Keep the rest on your card.

Is the festival itself expensive?

Food and drinks at the festival are more expensive than in the city (about 1.5-2 times). Budget $50-100/day on site.

Tips are not mandatory but appreciated: 20-50 THB in restaurants, rounding up for taxis.
