The event features more than 20,000 bikers and more than 2,000 bikes from all regions of Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, Japan, Cambodia, and Vietnam, for all three days of the event.
Wittaya Singkala, Acting President of the Phuket Bike Week Association, said that the activity aimed to promote tourism with diversity and creativity as well as the culture of big bikes and motors. Participants can also enjoy the beauty of the sea and beaches of Phuket while enhancing quality tourism and elevating world-class tourism.
