Thammasat Stadium is a major multi-purpose venue located within the Rangsit campus of Thammasat University in Pathum Thani, Thailand. It primarily hosts football matches and athletics, serving as a frequent home ground for professional club teams and international fixtures. The stadium features a seating capacity of approximately 25,000 spectators. It was originally constructed to serve as one of the host venues for the 1998 Asian Games. The architectural design includes an open-air bowl configuration with a prominent main grandstand. The facility remains an active site for collegiate sports, university events, and national-level sporting competitions. It is situated on the outskirts of Bangkok, providing a suburban sporting environment distinct from the city center venues.

Bring a hat and sunscreen as the seating areas are largely uncovered and exposed to intense sun.
Check the official Thammasat University sports schedule before arrival to ensure the stadium is not closed for private university events.
Hydrate well, as the stadium surroundings are largely open with limited immediate access to convenience stores.
Do not rely on finding nearby large-scale tourist amenities; plan to travel back to central areas for dining and lodging.
Operations depend entirely on the university and league football calendars; the stadium may be restricted during university examinations or private events.
Maintain appropriate attire when walking through campus buildings; avoid swimwear or offensive clothing.
