Buriram's football stadium is the home of Buriram United, the city's football club, widely considered the best team in Thailand. Along with the adjacent, recently opened motor racing circuit, the stadium is a source of great pride for the locals. Football has put Buriram on the map. The stadium, also known as "Thunderburg" or "I-Mobile Stadium" (named after its main sponsor), is a vibrant blue. It was built in just 250 days, which seems to be a record for a stadium of this size (32,600 seats). If you're in Buriram on match night, a visit to the stadium is highly recommended. Ticket prices are very affordable, and it promises a great evening, even if you're not a big football fan.

Entry to the stadium is free. However, prior registration with staff is required for access to the changing rooms and the press room (mobile phone: 094 072 8886). The ticket price for a Thai Championship match is 120 or 150 THB, depending on the category.

There must be a bus to the stadium, but I don't know which one. Otherwise, you can hire a tuk-tuk.
