Named after the Songkhla-born former Thai Prime Minister Prem Tinsulanonda, it is used mostly for football matches.

The stadium has a capacity of 30,000 but just 2,000 of those spaces are covered in a small single-tiered stand along one touchline.

In the early 1970s, the Sports Authority of Thailand has a project to build a stadium in the region in Songkhla.

Therefore, a major improvement is needed again because the stadium has been selected to be the competition field for football.

In 2019, Tinsulanon Stadium has undergone major renovations to accommodate the hosting 2020 AFC U-23 Championship.
