The best clubs in Bangkok fall into three camps: the big-room superclubs of RCA, the tourist-friendly clubs of Sukhumvit Soi 11, and a smaller, scrappier underground of techno and house rooms spread across Silom, Chinatown, Ekkamai and Phrom Phong. The underground in particular has changed a lot. Several landmark clubs closed in the past three years, collectives have moved venue more than once, and a handful of new rooms have opened.

This guide covers what is running in 2026, what each place plays, what it costs to get in and how late it goes. For tonight's DJ line-ups, see nightlife events tonight and the nightlife listings.

Last checked: October 2026. Clubs and collectives here move often. Check each one's social pages for the current address and line-up before you go.

How late do Bangkok clubs stay open?

Most licensed clubs close at 2:00. Clubs inside the designated late-night zones (the RCA strip, Silom and Ratchadaphisek) can stay open until 4:00 if they hold the permit, and so can licensed venues in hotels. Thonglor and Ekkamai are outside the zones. Expect ID checks (the minimum age is 20) and occasional police checks; if a club is shut early, that's usually why. More in our guide to closing times and rules.

RCA: the superclub strip

Royal City Avenue, off Rama 9 Road, is a dedicated club zone that fills with a mostly young, Thai crowd from around midnight. It's at its best on Friday and Saturday.

  • Route 66: the long-running all-rounder, with several rooms playing hip-hop, EDM and Thai pop. Cover is usually a few hundred baht with a drink.
  • Onyx: a big-room EDM club with international DJs on event nights. Cover is higher, often around 400 to 500 THB.
  • VOID: the RCA name most often mentioned for serious electronic bookings in 2026.
  • INAKOMA: a weekly hard techno party on Fridays, running from around 23:00 to 4:00, with drinks included in the ticket.

RCA is a taxi from MRT Phra Ram 9 or MRT Phetchaburi. Getting a ride home at 4:00 can mean a wait; book Grab or Bolt before you leave the club.

Sukhumvit: Soi 11 and Sing Sing

Sukhumvit Soi 11, a walk from BTS Nana, has the most tourist-friendly clubs in the city.

  • Levels: a multi-floor club with mainstream house, EDM and hip-hop. Entry has been free before midnight with a cover after, but check.
  • Sugar: a hip-hop, R&B and trap club on the same soi.
  • Sing Sing Theater on Soi 45 (Phrom Phong) is the design-led option: dramatic Chinese-inspired interiors, a live act early on and DJs later, Tuesday to Saturday from 21:00. Dress smart casual; the door is strict.

Techno and house: Silom and Decho Road

Silom is in a 4am zone and has become the centre of Bangkok's house and techno.

  • Fuchsia on Decho Road is a multi-floor venue running every night until about 3:00, with techno nights alongside hip-hop, drag and themed parties.
  • Mustache is one of the city's longest-running house and techno brands, with international bookings and melodic techno on Wednesdays and weekends. It has moved several times and recently ran nights at temporary venues, so check its page for the current address.
  • Subwerk is the hard techno night (roughly 135 to 160 BPM), with no tables and no dress code. It has moved recently; follow its socials.
  • Horn on Silom Soi 4, open since March 2025, runs queer techno, house and experimental sessions from Thursday to Saturday, sometimes with Berlin's Gegen crew.
  • Elsewhere, on the ninth floor of the Trinity Complex, is a tiny listening room (capacity under 60) that books deep, minimal electronic DJs and peaks between 2:00 and 4:00 on Fridays and Saturdays.

Getting there: BTS Chong Nonsi for Decho Road; BTS Sala Daeng or MRT Silom for Soi 4. See the Silom night out guide.

Chinatown and Talat Noi: vinyl bars

The old town's shophouses suit small, sound-focused rooms.

  • Bar Temp. in Yaowarat plays vinyl-only house and techno with rotating collectives, Wednesday to Sunday from around 19:00 to 1:00, later on Fridays and Saturdays. It carries on the spirit of Never Normal, which closed in 2024.
  • Clutch, in The Warehouse at Talat Noi, is a multi-floor vinyl bar with a serious hi-fi system (JBL cabinets, McIntosh amps). Soul, jazz and funk on quieter nights; house and techno on event nights.
  • Culture Cafe on Sam Sen Road in the old town is a vinyl bar for minimal, deep house and jazzy grooves, open nightly.

Thonglor, Ekkamai and Phrom Phong

  • 12 x 12 in Ekkamai is a community-run room for about 50 people playing house, techno, disco and jazz. Run by friends rather than a company, it reopened after the pandemic.
  • Berlin BKK, new in early 2026 on the fifth floor of the Donki Mall building on Sukhumvit 63, books Berlin-style hard techno on Fridays and Saturdays.
  • ETA on Sukhumvit Soi 26, behind a red clock, plays hard techno, acid and UK garage from Wednesday to Sunday, with entry from around 150 THB.
  • Speakerbox on Thonglor Soi 55 is more live music than club, but its late sets often turn into DJ nights.

For bars and rooftops in the same area, see our Thonglor and Ekkamai nightlife guide.

Closed: don't use old guides

These have closed and still appear in older lists:

  • BEAM in Thonglor held its final night on 31 October 2025, when the 72 Courtyard complex closed.
  • Never Normal (closed 2024), De Commune, Glow, Curve and Eden are all gone.

Cover charges and costs

  • RCA and Soi 11: free to a few hundred baht, usually with one drink. Big-name DJ nights cost more, often sold through ticket apps.
  • Underground nights: free to around 700 THB for international bookings.
  • Drinks: club beers and mixers usually 150 to 300 THB. Bottle service is common at RCA tables.
  • Dress: smart casual for Sing Sing and the RCA clubs (no flip-flops or vests); anything goes at most techno nights.

Big electronic festivals and arena DJs are a separate scene; watch concert listings and the calendar. For the rest of the night, start with our Bangkok nightlife guide.
