チェンマイ旧市街文化センターで伝統的なランナーショー

I feel conflicted writing this review because the staff and performers seemed lovely however the behaviours of other audience members was disgusting and ruined our evening. A large party of 30+ people arrived late and proceeded to completely ignore the performance, talk and laugh loudly to the extent that we couldn’t hear the music or narrative and couldn’t appreciate the performance because of the constant noise. It was highly disrespectful to both the performers and other audience members. Unfortunately we were seated closest to them and it was impossible to ignore. I realise this might be an isolated experience however the staff did nothing to curtail this and the tour party organiser had left for the whole of the performance. It should have been a lovely evening appreciating and respecting Thai culture but they might as well just have gone to a restaurant if that was the evening they wanted rather than spoiling ours.

This was a gentle way to spend an evening in Chiang Mai. The food came out gradually, the music set a nice mood, and the dances were interesting to watch without feeling too long. It felt like a good introduction to northern Thai culture, especially if it is your first time in the city.

Unless you specifically request "Western Seating", you will be sitting on the floor. While I did not purchase the dinner ticket, many folks did and I could see how challenging eating on the floor was for some of the audience members. The dances were charming and the dancers skillful. It was a very good performance. I think because I have attended similar performances, it did not light me up with excitement. I actually left early. I plan on going back and enjoying one of the restaurants in the complex. The menus looked very good.

We did the show only and enjoyed the evening watching many forms of Lanna dances and music. Staff were very accommodating and gave us a table even though our booking was for ground seating. (Note: Seating Option was not selectable during booking which should be corrected by Viator). This was a last minute booking and it worked out!

Very traditional food and performance, no surprise. But it was quite a pleasant and entertaining evening. The performance was a folk art style.
