From December 30 to January 9, the carnival draws thousands to Saphan Hin public park in Phuket City for amusement and good food.

Officials say 80,000 tickets will be sold on Phuket at 100 baht a pop, with the house in Thalang as the major drawcard.

Second prize is a car, with five motorcycles, flat screen television sets, refrigerators and 80 fans to be won.

The fair starts at 4pm daily and includes plenty of fun for children, as well as nightly performances and a selection of food of all kinds.
