Sukhumvit lighting show to usher in holiday season

Bangkok's first international lighting festival will take place around two of the largest shopping malls on Sukhumvit road over the Christmas and New Year period with the expectation of attracting more than five million shoppers.

The EM District, comprising The Emporium and The EmQuartier, in conjunction with the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) and the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA), yesterday announced “The EM District Presents: Bangkok Illumination 2015,” which will be held from December 1 until January 3. 
Costing more than Bt100 million, the event will transform The EM District and Sukhumvit road into a lighting art exhibition with stunning displays of more than 40 objects by both Thai and foreign artists, covering over one million square metres of space divided into 40 major areas between Sukhumvit Road Soi 24 and 31.
