Rajadamnern Stadium Announces January 2026 Muay Thai Event Schedule

Check out this month's lineup for Bangkok's oldest-standing Muay Thai venue.

Rajadamnern Stadium released its January 2026 event schedule and, as usual, fans can expect a mixed bag of thrilling Muay Thai action throughout the month — seven nights a week of striking arts that showcase everything from rising talent to world-class championship bouts.

Monday, Tuesday, Friday: Rajadamnern Knockout (7 PM – 9 PM)

The week’s knockout-focused events deliver exactly what the name promises — an entertainment-driven Muay Thai experience built for speed, power, and spectacle. With an average 80 percent knockout rate, these shows feature fast three-round bouts where up-and-coming talent from the local circuit and international fighters chase decisive finishes. Seven fights per evening guarantee high-impact action from the first bell, with each bout designed to deliver adrenaline-pumping exchanges rather than drawn-out technical battles.

Wednesday: New Power (6 PM – 10 PM)

This event brings traditional five-round Muay Thai matches to Wednesday nights. New Power showcases high-caliber fighters in a format that honors the sport’s classical roots, complete with the largest legal public betting scene that creates an atmosphere charged with excitement. Eight fights per card allow the event to blend technical mastery with the raw energy that comes from a crowd with money riding on every exchange.

Thursday: Petchyindee (7 PM – 9 PM)

A local favorite, the Petchyindee promotion features skilled and technical fighters in classic five-round bouts. Known for bringing together fighters with exceptional technical proficiency, these Thursday night cards appeal to purists who appreciate the artistry of Muay Thai’s eight limbs. Eight fights showcase the kind of high-level striking that has made Petchyindee one of Thailand’s most respected promotional brands, fueled by the intensity and passion of a crowd deeply invested in the outcomes.

Saturday: Rajadamnern World Series (7 PM – 10 PM)

The crown jewel of Rajadamnern’s weekly schedule, RWS positions itself as “the greatest Muay Thai event of all time.” Each card features elite local and international fighters — including IFMA World Champions, Rajadamnern champions, and titleholders from prestigious venues like Lumpinee, Omnoi, Channel 7, and Top King — competing in intense three-round bouts.

The Saturday showcase delivers five-round championship fights as main events every week, with open scoring after every round ensuring transparency for fans following the action. World-class production values, including cutting-edge light and sound systems and the stadium’s immersive dome projection experience, transform fight nights into high-energy spectacles. Free-flowing beer throughout the evening adds to the festival atmosphere, while DAZN broadcasts beam the action to over 200 countries and territories worldwide.

Seven fights per card maintain the quality-over-quantity approach, with each bout carefully matched to deliver competitive battles worthy of the RWS brand.

Sunday: Kiatpetch X SKS (6 PM – 10 PM)

The weekend concludes with a collaboration show that offers a unique Muay Thai experience featuring both three and five-round fight formats in one action-packed night. As one of Thailand’s largest promoters, Kiatpetch brings together highly skilled, technical fighters for eight bouts that deliver a perfect blend of traditional and thrilling Muay Thai action. The event showcases the intensity of legal public betting, creating an atmosphere where every strike carries weight beyond the judges’ scorecards.

For fans and travelers seeking an authentic Muay Thai experience, Rajadamnern Stadium’s January schedule provides seven different flavors of Thailand’s national sport — from knockout-focused entertainment on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Fridays to championship-level battles on Saturdays, with traditional five-round warfare filling the gaps in between. The world’s first purpose-built Muay Thai stadium, opened in 1945, continues to serve as both museum and living arena, where history and modernity collide under the dome each night.
