Indoor Stadium Huamark (Thai: อินดอร์ สเตเดียม หัวหมาก, RTGS: Indo Satediam Hua Mak, pronounced [ʔīn.dɔ̄ː sā.tēː.dîa̯m hǔa̯ màːk]) is an indoor sporting arena, located in Hua Mak Subdistrict, Bang Kapi, Bangkok, Thailand. It is next to Rajamangala National Stadium and is a part of Hua Mak Sports Complex. The original capacity of the arena is 15,000 spectators and it was built in 1966 for the 5th Asian Games. After renovation for 2012 FIFA Futsal World Cup, the capacity is reduced to 6,000 seats[1] and expandable to 8,000 seats.[2]
