overview [edit ]
It was beginning used for the 1998 asian Games in 1998 and 1999 ASEAN University Games in 1999. Since then, it has been used for many external matches and football tournaments. Most notably, for the 2007 AFC asian Cup. Thai club sides have besides used the stadium when play in continental cup competitions. Krung Thai Bank FC ( nowadays Bangkok Glass FC ) used it for AFC Champions League matches, and PEA FC and Chonburi FC have recently used it in the AFC Cup. away from football, it has been used for athletics, pop concerts, and political rallies. Rajamangala Stadium was designed by the Faculty of Architecture at Chulalongkorn University. The main fabric used in structure was concrete and therefore, though the stadium is impressive and levy, it could never be described as beautiful. however, it is undoubtedly dramatic. The stands rise and fall like a giant, exaggerated adaptation of Huddersfield ‘s Galpharm Stadium. At each end are quite specialize tiers of seats but the tiers emanation and rise as they move round the sides until they peak floor with the half-way line. From an aesthetic indicate of view, the stadium is best viewed from a distance, preferably from the publicize, where the egg-shaped shape of the side tribunes seems peculiarly pronounced. The aforesaid side tribunes are designated ‘East ‘ and ‘West ‘. ‘East ‘ is the uncover popular side ; ‘West ‘ is the covered side where the more expensive seats are. The two ends are designated ‘North ‘ and ‘South ‘. ‘North ‘ is the more popular of the two. It ‘s where the more vocal and colorful elements of the Thai accompaniment congregate.

The capacity of the stadium is 65,000. When the stadium first opened the capacity was 80,000. But credit card seats were installed on the North, South and East sides, where previously there had been unsheathed concrete steps, in readiness for the 2007 AFC asian Cup. The stadium is not served by public tape drive which has constantly been a source of frustration for fans. presently, there are no train stations anywhere near the stadium ( unlike at the National Stadium, which is served by the Skytrain – National Stadium BTS station ). however, there are buses and taxis which pass fairly close to the stadium. From 2022, the stadium will be served by the MRT Orange Line. The stadium hosted the 2012 Race of Champions. On 24 November 2013, a crowd estimated at 100,000 joined the muster around Bangkok ‘s Democracy Monument in an anti-government protest, according to the Democrat Party, as pro-government crimson shirts gathered at Rajamangala Sports Stadium. On 16 September 2019 Sports Authority of Thailand has been closed for renovation to be used as one of the stadiums for 2020 AFC U-23 Championship, which Thailand hosted in January 2020 to select 3 teams to compete in the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, Japan.
