Final Countdown to the Jesters Children's Fair
By Mike Franklin


 

It promises to be the biggest and best Jesters Children's Fair yet - this year at the scenic Diana Garden Lodge & Driving Range, North Pattaya. Sunday 15th September is the big day, starting at 10.00 am and going on until 5.00 pm.

How to get there

Location MapIn Pattaya
It's easy to get there (see the Diana Driving Range Location Map), and if you need transport go to the Diana Inn/Green Bottle on No.2 Road opposite Mike's Store and pick up the free Diana Shuttle Bus going every hour, on the hour, to the Children's Fair.

From Jomtien
Alternatively, starting at 10.00 am you can catch a bus from the 'KR Bar' just 50 meters from Jomtien Beach on the road to Pattaya. It will also stop at Shenanigans, at the top of Soi Regent Marina, and outside Tesco Lotus North Road, then into the Fair. The bus will follow the same route all day up to 5.00 pm so people can also ride back into town. This transport is kindly provided by Phil Rose of CBI/ST.
