Sisaket Wins Hosting Rights For 52nd King's Cup
Sisaket Province will host the 52nd King's Cup tournament in 2026 at a 12,000-seat stadium, with Thailand competing against Oman, Bahrain, and Tajikistan.
Sisaket Province has been named host of the 52nd King's Cup at Sisaket Central Stadium (Ko Klang Nam), featuring a 12,000-seat capacity. The Thai Football Association selected the venue after considering bids from four provinces: Sisaket, Khon Kaen, Ayutthaya, and Rayong. The King's Cup is an economic stimulus initiative that brings the Thai national team to different provinces.
On July 7, 2026, during the FA Thailand Awards 2025/26 ceremony at The Grand Foursquare Convention Hotel in Bangkok, Sisaket was officially announced as the host. Siriphong Angsakulkiat, Deputy Minister of Transport and Member of Parliament for Sisaket, and the Sisaket Sports Association chairman attended the announcement.
The tournament will feature four nations: Thailand (ranked 94th), Oman (79th), Bahrain (92nd), and Tajikistan (101st) in the FIFA world rankings. Match pairings will be determined by draw at a later date.
