The Night Bazaar Nightlife

What to Do at Night in The Night Bazaar

This is an area that comes to life when the sun goes down. During the day you will be hard pushed to experience the energy and sheer vibrancy that emerges with the setting up of the stalls and consequent crowds of people. Like the goods on sale at the Night Bazaar, the nightlife is varied. If you walk away from the crowds on the Chang Klan Road down towards the Loi Kroh you will come across Guitar Man, a Chiang Mai institution. Opposite this bar on Jarean Phatet Road there is a chilled out Rasta bar and few beer bars.

For something more upbeat the Kalare Food Court has nightly lady boy cabarets and Muay Thai fights (remove, on). Further up the Chang Klan Road, past the markets as you approach the Chiang Mai City area there is a high concentration of popular bars, with the area geared towards drinking and dancing. There are also a few pubs around the Night Bazaar area, perfect for stopping and having a mid shopping drink or resting in while someone else wants to shop.

Foxy Lady A Go Go

Foxy Lady is much bigger than Spotlight A Go Go, the other Go Go bar near Tha Pae gate, and located in the Nigh Bazaar behind the Dusit D2 Hotel. Girls are clearly younger and prettier here, maybe because prices are a bit higher, with a beer starting at 125 Baht. The place features 2 levels, but the second floor doesn't seem to used much. Stage is small and can only accommodate 4 to 5 girls. Entry is free, but there is no show here either.

Location: behind Dusit D2
