Common questions from sponsors and attendees.
When can I buy tickets and how much do they cost?
Tickets go on sale 15 May 2026 with early-bird pricing for the first 7 days. Four tiers: VIP All-Access, Delegate Pass (B2B both days), Day Pass (general public Day 2), and Drag Arena Premium (reserved seating + meet-and-greet). Pay by credit card, PromptPay, or bank transfer. Group and corporate orders (10+ seats) get an invoice on request — email tickets@prideshow.org.
Why only 10 Sponsor Hubs?
BEAT Active is an intimate multifunction venue, which means every sponsor sits on the main attendee path rather than a back-of-hall aisle. 10 hubs at 2×2m is the maximum footprint that keeps sightlines to the main stage clean and preserves the B2B matchmaking density.
Who runs the drag programme on Day 2?
Yellow Channel — Thailand's leading drag production company since 2017. They curate Thailand's Drag Stars (15:00–19:00) and headline Drag Arena International 2026 (20:00–23:00), with 11 queens flown in from Taiwan, Malaysia, South Korea, Philippines, and Vietnam.
Who attends PrideShow 2026?
Day 1 is B2B & VIP only — ESG leads, C-suite, NGO directors, and founders. Day 2 mornings stay B2B for workshops and panels; from 14:00 the floor opens to the public for the drag takeover, marketplace, and Drag Arena Main Event.
How do I claim my PrideShow directory listing?
Search for your company on the Claim page, verify ownership via email domain or social handle, then submit. Most claims are reviewed within 3 business days.
Am I eligible for LGBTBE certification?
Any Thai-registered business that is at least 51% owned and operated by LGBTQ+ individuals is eligible. The Sasin-run certification clinic runs alongside Day 2 workshops.
When does early-bird pricing close?
Early-bird rates (15% off listed prices) are available until 31 January 2026 or when the hub allocation fills — whichever comes first.
From VIP all-access to Day 2 general admission — choose your ticket and be part of Thailand's biggest LGBTQ+ business and culture event.
