Am I right in thinking that in previous years there were 3 huge stages and venues in Pattaya and that this year there is only one banished to the Sports Stadium in Jomtien?

Despite the fact that the events and dates were only confirmed on 7th March one can expect traffic gridlock in Pattaya and heaby traffic to and fro Bangkok.
