The Central Pattaya retail centre, formerly known as Central Festival Pattaya Beach, is located in the Thai city of Pattaya. Opening in 2009, it was the first shopping centre to bear the “Central Pattaya” name, which is owned by Thailand’s largest retail conglomerate.
The mall’s retail platform spans 7 stories and a total area of 200,000 square meters with direct access to the Hilton Pattaya, a hotel with 302 rooms and is home to more than 370 stores, 5 anchors (one of which is an entertainment complex), and a 5-story central department store.
The shopping centre can be found on Pattaya Beach Soi 9, with access from both Pattaya 2nd Road and Pattaya Beach Road. The Pattaya Hilton Hotel, which opened in November 2010, is also located within the property.
Located on Beach Road, Central Festival Retail Mall is a state-of-the-art shopping destination in the heart of Pattaya and the largest shopping mall and is conveniently located facing the beach.
Central Festival is a hotspot for beachgoers in search of great food and retail options due to its prime location and excellent beachside setting. Beach Road and Pattaya Second Road intersect to form the location of the shopping centre. Doors can be seen on both ends of the structure.
