With appreciation of the benevolence of Her Majesty the late Queen Sirikit, the Queen Mother, whose unwavering patronage has long supported Thai art and culture, the Nai Lert Park Association will present the "36th Nai Lert Flower & Garden Art Fair 2025" in collaboration with the Queen Sirikit Museum of Textiles and Sacit, at Nai Lert Park from Dec 18-21.
As part of this year’s fair, a Thai Royal Traditional Costume Exhibition will showcase all eight styles of Royal Thai costume, highlighting how the Queen Mother’s vision elevated Thai attire into a symbol of national pride through her tireless dedication and commitment to craftsmanship. The ensembles have since become a timeless expression of Thai elegance and an enduring testament to Thailand’s traditional artistry — from weaving and dyeing to tailoring crafted by artisans across the country.
The iconic costumes stand not only as symbols of Thailand’s cultural heritage and ingenuity, but also as emblems of cultural sustainability that have gained international recognition. The exhibition also precedes Thailand’s forthcoming submission for Unesco World Heritage inscription next year.
In addition, the fair will feature a performance of Khon, the traditional Thai masked dance, presented by youth performers from the Eakkachon Kan Lakorn Institute. The initiative honours the royal vision of the Queen Mother, who graciously encouraged the preservation and continuation of Khon as a national art form.
The programme will conclude with a Floral Installation inspired by flowers bestowed with royal names by the Queen Mother — including the Queen Sirikit Rose, Queen Sirikit Cattleya and Queen Sirikit Donya. The installation expresses grace, symbolism and deep cultural meaning, and is supported by the Tourism Authority of Thailand.
In honour of Her Royal Highness Princess Sirivannavari Nariratana Rajakanya, whose significant contributions have advanced and elevated Thai craftsmanship on the global stage, earning recognition from Unesco and the Wipo Award for Creative Excellence 2025, the Department of Community Development, Ministry of Interior has graciously provided 20 ensembles from the royal initiative “Fun With Thai Fabrics” to be showcased at this year’s fair.
Under the theme “Garden Of Tomorrow”, visitors can explore a visionary garden of the future — a seamless blend of natural beauty, contemporary art and innovative design.
