Panache and morsels- Cultural and Culinary Activities during the Convention

The World Boxing Council (WBC) will soon hold its annual Convention, the most important event of the year for the global boxing community, in the vibrant and welcoming city of Bangkok, Thailand, from November 30 to December 5.

This Convention is a unique opportunity for the boxing world to come together, collaborate to make the sport better and safer, and celebrate the rich tradition that Thailand brings to combat sports. Known as the “Land of Smiles,” Thailand is a country of great beauty, with a fascinating culture and incredibly friendly people.

This edition will be historic, as WBC Muaythai will join the annual convention for the first time, creating a joint event that unites the worlds of boxing and Muaythai. Bangkok, a melting pot of tradition and modernity, is the perfect host for this dual celebration.

Beyond meetings, forums, and official activities, attendees will have the chance to enjoy an unforgettable experience in a city that captivates the senses. Bangkok combines millennia of history with modernity and a unique energy. Its main attractions include the impressive Grand Palace and the Temple of the Emerald Buddha (Wat Phra Kaew), architectural gems reflecting the spiritual and artistic essence of the country. Other must-see temples include Wat Arun on the banks of the Chao Phraya River and Wat Pho, known for its gigantic Reclining Buddha.

In addition to its cultural richness, Bangkok is a world-renowned culinary paradise. Visitors can enjoy everything from elegant Michelin-starred restaurants to famous street stalls where pad thai, mango sticky rice, and satay skewers delight every palate.

For those seeking a more local experience, floating markets and night markets offer an explosion of colors, flavors, and aromas that capture the spirit of Thailand. And for those wanting to take home an authentic souvenir, craft, silk, and spice bazaars are a must-visit.

Bangkok invites every visitor to immerse themselves in its culture, enjoy its hospitality, and experience an unforgettable adventure that goes far beyond boxing.
