Pattaya Movie on The Beach is set to make a big splash from June 14th to the 17th, according to mayor Poramase Ngampiches.

The aim of the event is to transform Pattaya City into a ‘city of movies’ by 2027 as well as to stimulate tourism in June.

The event will feature an outdoor cinema where attendees can watch movies on the breezy beach of Pattaya over a four-day period . Two movies will be played each day in multiple languages, with films focusing on things in Pattaya.

Selfie booths and food stalls will also be set up. Entry will reportedly be free.

Pattaya is also looking at organizing a proper film festival in the future to become a centerpiece of arts, culture, and entertainment according to the mayor.

If it's indeed the classic anti-nuclear war film starring Gregory Peck, I'd agree that it's not well suited for this entertainment setting. But they claim that the movies to be screened are about Pattaya ("....movies will be played each day in multiple languages, with films focusing on things in Pattaya.") so I'm hoping that Pattaya Movie on the Beach is just the name of the festival and not necessarily that of the film.
