The Ploenchit Fair – A Legacy of Giving

“All the fun of the Fair” is more than just a slogan. It’s a heartfelt celebration of charity, culture, and community. At Asian Tigers Group Thailand, we are proud to be a long-standing partner of the Ploenchit Fair, one of Thailand’s most iconic annual fundraising events. Our involvement goes far beyond sponsorship. It’s a commitment of hands-on support, strategic logistics, and the kind of teamwork that reflects our mission to serve with integrity, energy, and heart.

Each year, the Ploenchit Fair brings together thousands of people from Bangkok’s international and local communities. What they experience is a day full of games, music, food, and festivities; but behind the joy is a deeper purpose: to raise funds for those in need across Thailand.

A Historic Foundation with a Modern Purpose

The Ploenchit Fair is organized by the British Community in Thailand Foundation for the Needy (BCTFN), a charitable institution with roots dating back to 1941. Originally conceived to support those affected by wartime hardships, the foundation has since evolved into one of Thailand’s most respected charitable bodies. Over the decades, BCTFN has raised and distributed millions of Thai Baht to fund impactful projects across the country.

In 2024, BCTFN provided funding to 13 charitable organizations throughout Thailand. These recipients work across a range of crucial causes including education, healthcare, disability support, women’s empowerment, and rural development. From building medical clinics in under-resourced areas to supporting shelters for women and children, BCTFN’s contributions change lives in practical, lasting ways.

At Asian Tigers, we recognize the value of building is not just relocation, but also resilient, thriving communities. Supporting the Ploenchit Fair aligns with our belief in being more than a service provider. We are neighbors, partners, and active participants in our communities we call home.

Asian Tigers at the Fair: More Than Just a Sponsor

Our team’s involvement in the Ploenchit Fair begins long before the gates open to the public. From the earliest stages of planning and set-up, Asian Tigers Thailand provides logistical coordination, transport support, manpower, and materials: all the moving parts (literally and figuratively) that help transform the venue into a vibrant, operational fairground.

We assist with everything from booth transportation to on-site setup, ensuring that the event infrastructure is safe, efficient, and ready to welcome thousands of guests. Our team’s operational precision, combined with a genuine spirit of service, makes sure the Fair runs smoothly from start to finish.

And we don’t stop there. You’ll often find members of the Asian Tigers team volunteering on the ground during the event; whether it’s staffing booths, coordinating supplies, or simply making sure everything is running like clockwork. It’s a hands-on reflection of our company values in action.

The Heart of the Fair: Community, Joy, and Impact

While the charitable aspect of the Fair is central, it’s also a time to celebrate the joyful, multicultural spirit of Thailand. Visitors can enjoy British pub games, delicious international cuisine, raffle prizes, live performances, and engaging activities for all ages. It’s a place where people from all walks of life come together for fun, with the added bonus of knowing their participation directly supports good causes.

At its core, the Ploenchit Fair reminds us that giving back doesn’t have to be somber. It can be lively, colorful, and filled with laughter. This harmony of fun and purpose mirrors the Asian Tigers approach to relocation: we handle the complexity so our clients can embrace the journey with confidence and positivity.

Strengthening Bonds in the Expat and Local Community

With so many of our clients coming from the expat community in Thailand, events like the Ploenchit Fair also serve as a point of connection. It’s a chance for our clients, friends, and partners to see the human side of our brand; whether through a handshake at the gate or a laugh shared over a game.

We’re proud to be more than a moving company. We’re a part of the social fabric that helps expatriates integrate and thrive in their new homes. It’s this combination of professional service and heartfelt community engagement that sets us apart in the industry.

A Shared Legacy of Giving

At the end of every Ploenchit Fair, when the tents come down and the grounds are cleared, what remains isn’t just empty space; it’s the knowledge that together, we’ve helped push important work forward. The funds raised go directly to projects that create hope, opportunity, and stability for those who need it most.

That’s why Asian Tigers Group Thailand will continue to stand behind this incredible initiative, year after year.

Our mission is not only to move people across borders, but to move hearts, build bridges, and contribute to a better tomorrow.
