Surakul Stadium is named after the first Governor of Phuket, Phraya Ratsadanupradit Mahitsaraphakdi, whose birth name was Kho Sim Bee na Ranong.
The stadium has served as the temporary home for various football clubs over the last decade during the shifting cycles of the Thai League.
The site acts as a major provincial center for the annual Phuket King's Cup Regatta related logistics and opening ceremonies when held in the city.
Surakul Stadium is the primary multi-purpose sports facility in Phuket City, serving as the home ground for Phuket FC. The stadium features a traditional oval track surrounding a grass football pitch with grandstand seating on the main side. It is the central hub for local athletic competitions, school sports meets, and large-scale public outdoor gatherings. The venue is officially owned and maintained by the Phuket Provincial Administrative Organization. While the facility shows age, it remains the most significant historical site for professional football matches within the province. The surrounding grounds are frequently used by local residents for evening jogging and recreational fitness.
