Last updated: October 2026

Prices are approximate ranges in Thai baht, based on venue menus and recent visitor reports. Always confirm on the spot. High season (Nov–Apr) leans to the higher end. Many hotel bars add 10% service charge and 7% VAT on top of menu prices (shown as “++”).

Shows and activities

Ticket prices for Muay Thai and cabaret shows vary by seat class and date. Check the live price on the booking page rather than trusting a fixed number.

Key reminders

  • Check the menu price before you order, especially in bars without a printed menu.
  • Paying round by round reduces bill surprises.
  • Look for “++” — it adds about 17% to hotel-bar prices.
  • Low season (roughly May–Oct) can be cheaper, with more promotions.

Plan the whole night: budget bands · cash.
