Overview
What is Carnival Magic Phuket?
Carnival Magic is an evening theme park in Kamala, on the west coast of Phuket, Thailand. It opened in 2022 and sits on the same site as Phuket FantaSea. The park is built around light, colour and a big outdoor parade, so it is best enjoyed after dark.
The centrepiece is the Kingdom of Lights, a walk-through area lit by more than 40 million LED lights. Around it you will find a fairground with game stalls, snack counters, souvenir shops and live music.
When is the show and what are the timings?
The park opens on Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays only, from 5:30 PM to 11:30 PM. Plan for three to four hours in total.
- Gates open: 5:30 PM
- Bird of Paradise buffet: about 5:30 PM to 8:30 PM (dinner packages)
- River Carnival parade: usually starts around 8:30 PM and runs for close to 50 minutes
- Park closes: 11:30 PM
Arrive about 90 minutes before the parade so you have time to eat and walk through the lights. Timings can change on the day.
What happens in the River Carnival parade?
The River Carnival is the main show of the night. Around 88 floats and roughly 300 performers move past the seating area with music, costumes and light effects. You watch from a fixed seat, with seating set by your ticket type.
Which package should you book?
There are three ticket options. Show Only covers park entry, the Kingdom of Lights and the parade. Show + Dinner adds the Bird of Paradise buffet, which serves Asian, Western, Indian, vegetarian and halal dishes. Show + Dinner (Royal Seat) adds the buffet and the best seats for the parade.
Is Carnival Magic good for families?
Yes. It suits young children, couples and grandparents. The parade is watched from a seat, and walking between the zones is the main effort. Infants go free.
