Bitcoin Thailand: The World’s First Bitcoin Half Marathon & Festival
🏃♂️💡 Join Us in Making History!
On November 2, 2025, Chiang Mai, Thailand, will host the world’s first Bitcoin Half Marathon, a groundbreaking event under the larger umbrella of Bitcoin Thailand—The Bitcoin Half Marathon & Festival.
This isn’t just a race—it’s a movement. We are working with JOG AND JOY CO., LTD., Thailand’s premier race organizer, with 30+ years of experience and over 860 events nationwide. We anticipate more than 5,000 runners and over 10,000 festival attendees, all converging in one of the most vibrant cities in Southeast Asia.
🔸 Why Chiang Mai? Why Now?
We’ve strategically aligned Bitcoin Thailand with Thailand’s world-famous Loi Krathong Festival, which attracts nearly 50,000 visitors to the city during the same week. This timing ensures maximum visibility, engagement, and impact for Bitcoin education and adoption.
Chiang Mai is also ranked as one of the safest cities in the world, making it the perfect destination for both locals and international attendees. Whether you're running the race or enjoying the festival, you can experience all the excitement with peace of mind.
Unlike traditional Bitcoin conferences that primarily cater to existing Bitcoiners, Bitcoin Thailand is for everyone. It will be an outdoor event at the new Pao Park, offering beautiful lakes and stunning mountain views that will set the perfect backdrop for this incredible celebration of Bitcoin, freedom, and financial empowerment.
This event is designed to introduce the general public to Bitcoin through a focus on:
✔️ Financial Literacy – Understanding money, savings, investing, and smart financial management.
✔️ Financial Inclusion – Ensuring financial access for those left behind by traditional banking.
✔️ Financial Empowerment – Providing the tools and confidence for individuals to control their financial future.
🌍 Asia’s Largest Bitcoin Event Ever
With Thailand actively exploring Bitcoin adoption, including the highly anticipated pilot program in Phuket, the momentum is building. Bitcoin Thailand will be the largest Bitcoin-focused event in Asia, centered on why Bitcoin matters and how it can change lives.
🎤 A Two-Day Celebration of Bitcoin & Freedom
📅 November 1 – A global stage for Asian Bitcoin companies, leaders, and innovators, featuring short talks and panels in English.
📅 November 2 – A day dedicated to Thai speakers, featuring local experts, engaging workshops, and interactive sessions.
🎶 Both days will be packed with live music, incredible food, and hands-on Bitcoin education led by Thailand’s most experienced Bitcoiners.
Be Part of This Historic Event!
We are calling on visionary sponsors, partners, and supporters to help bring this one-of-a-kind event to life. This is your chance to lead the Bitcoin revolution in Asia and make a lasting impact on financial education and adoption.
