5 Best Nightclubs in Bangkok

The best nightclubs in Bangkok stay buzzing seven nights a week. Mega-clubs and underground haunts stand side by side, attracting revellers from every corner of the planet. You’ll find every musical genre in Bangkok—from the new wave of EDM flooding the city to classic hip hop and drum ’n’ bass.

The sheer amount of options, along with the fun-loving crowds, makes Bangkok the premier clubbing destination in Asia (and one of the most boisterous party cities in the world). Below, we’ve presented the best venues in Thailand’s capital.

What are the best nightclubs in Bangkok?

1. Onyx

For top-notch DJs and a world-class sound system

Good for: Nightlife

Electronic Dance Music (EDM) is the perfect soundtrack for partying in Bangkok and RCA’s popular Onyx is a shining example. This 2,500-capacity EDM nightspot comes equipped with CO2 cannons, confetti drops, and visually spectacular laser shows.

Onyx is one of the city’s biggest party spaces with a huge dancefloor and plenty of standing tables and stools. Some European-inspired touches are evident, such as the impressively-high ceiling and a cool LED screen behind the main DJ booth. Plus, it’s the first club in Bangkok to rank in DJ Magazine’s ‘Best Clubs in the World’ list. Read more

Phone: +66 81 645 1166

2. Sing Sing Theater

Neo-chinoiserie nightspot

Good for: Luxury, Nightlife, Photo, Unusual

Sing Sing Theater is a fantastic nightlife venue with a very creative interior. Paying homage to Far Eastern aesthetics, expect intricate wrought iron patterns, hundreds of lanterns hanging from the ceiling, dazzling dragon imagery, and glamorous ‘Muses’ (elegant girls dressed in Chinese Qipao dresses).

The music at Sing Sing Theater covers a lot of ground and is far more ambitious than most clubs in Bangkok. There’s also a fabulous drinks menu featuring wine, beer, and cocktails. Try the Tanqueray infused Sakura and the Pampero rum Samurai. Read more

Location: 45 Sukhumvit Alley, Khlong Tan Nuea, Watthana, Bangkok 10110, Thailand

Open: Tuesday–Saturday from 9 pm to midnight (closed on Sunday and Monday)

Phone: +66 63 225 1331

3. Levels Club & Lounge

Pulsing after-dark joint with outstanding audio-visuals

Good for: Nightlife

Levels Club & Lounge features a rooftop terrace and a duo of dance rooms. As to be expected, the venue covers a lot of musical ground: funky beats outside, R&B hits in the plush main space, and house and techno in the rear.

Thanks to the free entry (and a proactive PR team), Levels attracts a decent gathering of clubbers most nights of the week, with special events on Wednesday and Friday (expect lots of bikini-clad models). This club caters to Western tastes, with minimal seating and a vibe conducive for mixing and mingling. Note the strict dress code (no shorts, flip flops, or hoodies, ). Read more

Location: 6th Floor, Aloft Hotel, 35 Sukhumvit Rd, Khlong Toei Nuea, Watthana, Bangkok 10110, Thailand

Open: Daily from 10 pm to 3 am

Phone: +66 82 308 3246

4. Route 66

The city’s most popular super club

Good for: Luxury, Nightlife

If young, Thai, and sexy is your thing then you should definitely check out Route 66. RCA (Royal City Avenue) is a designated party street with bars and clubs on both sides—and this is the pick of the lot. Three rooms play live music, hip hop, and trance (though it’s the hip hop area that grabs all the attention).

Route 66 is definitely Thai-style clubbing, which means most people turn up, purchase a bottle of whiskey, and claim their spot for the night. All the best areas are reserved for this and anyone sipping beers will find the majority of their night is spent hovering around, trying to find a place to stand. Check the official website for forthcoming events. Read more

Location: 29/33 - 48 Royal City Avenue (RCA), Soi Soonvijai, Rama 9 Road, Huai Khwang, Bangkok 10310, Thailand

Open: Daily from 9 pm to 4 am

Phone: +66 2 203 0407

5. Mustache Bangkok

Thailand’s best underground club

Good for: Nightlife

Mustache Bangkok is a no-nonsense house and techno joint that entices visitors with its cool, friendly vibe. It teems with expats and knowledgeable Thais who love cutting-edge dance music. Open on Friday and Saturday nights only, it’s the kind of place where people are more concerned with the tunes than what they’re wearing.

Mustache offers a free beverage with entry and has an unbeatable all-you-can-drink deal for 800 TBH. The club is spread over two floors, playing tech-house in the main room. On the 2nd floor, The Lab’s talented DJs spin groovy house on open decks.

Location: Decho Rd, Suriyawong, Khet Bang Rak, Bangkok 10500, Thailand

Open: Friday–Saturday from 10 pm to 3.30 am

Phone: +66 63 017 8555
