Highly recommend visiting! Aside from the awesome architecture, of course, the art installations were amazing — at least when we visited (Nov 10, 2023). There are also stores on the lower floors, tho we didn’t check them out

Entrance is free, lockers are also free, clean toilets on every floor, location is very convenient with an entrance from the skywalk. I can say it’s also PWD accessible as they had working elevators and ramps.

The Bangkok Art and Culture Centre is a dynamic hub showcasing a diverse range of artistic expressions. Its contemporary architecture complements the innovative exhibits within. With a commitment to fostering creativity, it serves as a cultural focal point. While some areas may benefit from additional maintenance, the overall impact as a creative space is significant. Whether you're an art enthusiast or just seeking cultural exploration, the Bangkok Art and Culture Centre offers a compelling journey through Thailand's vibrant artistic landscape.

It’s a big modern structure , the actual museum gallery bit is on the upper floors from about 6-9. There are shops and small galleries on the lower levels. Looks very similar to the Guggenheim in New York on a smaller scale. Good contemporary Thailand based artists were on exhibit when we visited November .

I was there last weekend and enjoyed walking around. The building itself is beautiful with all the circular ramp walks Variety of exhibits, esp since the Bangkok theatre festival is going on.. will try and go again!

Nice place to visit if you’re wandering around Siam area. Accessible from BTS Siam, you have MBK, Siam Discovery, Siam Paragon and all around you! Many exhibitions to see in the buildings. You will like it if you like to visit art galleries.

I suggest to spend around 2-3 hours here!

When I went, the main exhibit was the winners of a national painting contest. It was exactly what I hoped to see in my heart of hearts - contemporary (but not conceptual) work from talented local artists with amazing local flavor, traditional art influence and meticulous technique and skill. I couldn’t have hoped for a better exhibit, wow!
I am not sure what is usually displayed in this museum but I got very lucky to see the show I did.
On another floor, there was a charming botanical illustration exhibit. And on another floor, there were various artisans selling handmade wares from jewelry to lotions & candles and clothing.
I would love to come here again for another exhibit.

One of the beautiful attractive sites in Bangkok. Free visit. Many art exhibitions, coffee shops, and restaurants in the very beautiful building with many parking lots. Its location is really nice surrounded with other attractive sites, near the BTS sky train station, and bus stop. Easily accessible for everyone including wheelchair users and elders. Very warm welcome and great hospitality from all staff. So impressive!

It was very enjoyable and educational to visit the BACC. We were so lucky to join a music concert held for an hour which was fascinating. You got a lot to see on each floor as there are different exhibitions for photos, paintings and sculptures. The architecture design of BACC is also worth paying attention. There are many cafes and stores as well so you can Shiah’s get a drink and enjoy the vibe. BACC is definitely worth spending a day to finish exploring all the halls and exhibitions.
