While Thailand is not yet 'out of the woods' on Covid-19, (daily deaths hover in the 20's and 30's), the Powers-That-Be have allowed massage parlors, karaokes and bars to reopen to their former (pre-Covid) activity levels. Note: While there are some lingering international travel and hygiene restrictions, once inside Bangkok's Night Entertainment Venues, it's status quo ante (or to say the same thing another way, 'New Normal same as the old)...

A month earlier the Prime Minister'sCentre for Covid-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) deemed the Pandemic to be 'Endemic', and they have since continued to ease off on international travel and entertainment restrictions. The most recent incremental repeal of restrictions - inclusive of freeing up the Night Entertainment Venues - became effective 1 June 2022 and is summarized below.
This information has been updated on 31 May, 2022.
A Summary of Current Government Guidelines on Covid-19
Bangkok, 01 June 2022

2. A Thailand Pass (via https://tp.consular.go.th/) (Thais are exempt from this requirement.) Once all essential details have been completed via the system, the QR code will be automatically issued (no waiting time).
3. An insurance policy with coverage no less than US$10,000. Thais and foreign expatriates under Thailand’s national healthcare coverage are exempt from this requirement.
On Arrival Requirements
1. Upon arriving in Thailand, all travellers must undergo entry screening, including body temperature check, and present the required documents to the Immigration/Health Control officer to carry out the checks.
2. The vaccinated travellers will then be allowed entry and are free to go anywhere in the kingdom. *For arrivals by land using a border pass, they will be allowed a stay of no longer than 3 days within the specified areas only.

4.Unvaccinated/not fully vaccinated travellerswithout a negative test result within 72 hours of travel are required to follow the public health instructions and guidelines as deemed appropriate by the Health Control officer at the point of arrival.
During the Stay
While in Thailand, both vaccinated and unvaccinated/not fully vaccinated travellers are advised to strictly follow the health and safety standards. Travellers who are experiencing COVID-like symptoms should get tested. If testing positive, they must get the appropriate medical treatment.
Entertainment / Night Entertainment
In the “Green Zone” and “Blue Zone” provinces of Bangkok, Chiang Mai, and Phuket, bars, including A Go-Go bars, clubs, pubs, tattoo & massage parlours, gyms/ fitness studios, movie theatres, traditional plays / shows, saunas, barber shops, beauty and nail salons are allowed to open / reopen. (Editor's note: As long as there are customers, other than Item 1 below, we have not observed the other three rules in effect.)
1. Employees must be vaccinated, to include booster shot.
2. Employees must wear masks.
3. Venues nominally to close at 12:00 midnight.
4. Standard hygeine measures remain in effect.
We note that the Government can change travel and/or Night Entertainment policy from time to time, so prospective travellers should update on a regular basis, both with the Tourist Organization of Thailand (TOT), and your local Thai Consulate.
The Covid-19 Certificate of Vaccination for International Travel
(Reprinted by request.)
For Thais and foreigners living in, or otherwise vaccinated against Covid-19 in Thailand, your records have automatically been maintained at the Department of Disease Control, Ministry of Public Health. Your records can be accessed by you at any time by downloading the Moh Phrom app on your smart phone, and filling in the data - exactly as recorded on your hard copy vaccination certificate given to you at the time of vaccination.
Should you be planning to obtain your "International Certificate" (yellow booklet below) to travel outside of Thailand, open your Moh Prom app and scroll down to the International Certificate box - and click-and-apply. Note: foreigners are given a 13 digit ID number in lieu of the Thai National ID number, which you will find on your hard-copy certificate, and you will be required to use it when applying. You will be able to book an online appointment to obtain your Covid-19 Certification of Vaccination on the app - which, when completed, will usually involve a wait of approximately one week to ten days. When you go to pick up your certificate, bring your passport and hard copy vaccination certificate(s) for verification purposes. The pick up point is at the Bang Rak Hospital Building next to the new Saint Louis BTS station on Sathorn Road. The fee is fifty (50) Baht.. The earlier requirement to present your onward travel documents / airline tickets is no longer in effect, all are welcome to process for the new yellow booklet. We recommend all expats process for this certificate, as the rules and regulations on the international scene are in flux, and you may be required to show the certificate at many and various points of entry, etc, to include getting back into Thailand.
In summation ( Reprint from previous issue.) -
Bangkok Eyes will continue our efforts to encourage tourism by providing updated information on travel and entertainment which could be useful to those wishing to visit Thailand. Travellers to the Kingdom, once through the entry drill for documentation and possible testing, currently have a great amount of leeway in travelling in-country, and visiting Night Entertainment Venues. However, while current regulations for wearing masks are technically still in effect (such as public transportation, public and commercial buildings and other official locations), many are now not wearing masks on the street or in places of entertainment. Nevertheless, in certain circumstances you may be asked to wear your mask, so it is important that you have your mask with you when leaving your home / hotel. Foreigners in Thailand must keep their vaccinations up to date, and should keep proof of vaccination with them when out and about.
READER : Sir,
Been away for a couple decades, and now that the Cov's leaving town, at least we hope, I'm back in Bangkok, and back in the bars. Sure glad to be back, but somehow its not the same. Sure, prices are up, but thats not a big deal after this many years, but what I'm getting at is hitting the bars in the evening used to be a relaxing time, mostly just hanging out having a few. Finding a girl for the evening always a possibility, but not being pressured. Then there's today - let me give you an example, the other night at Nana I was taking some selfies and some guard in paramilitary gear and a buzzcut starts shining a laser in my eyes, yelling, 'No Photo! No Photo! Such a bizarre scene could not have happened in the laid-back Bangkok of 20 or 30 years ago. WTF? Since when do bar areas have security guards? I'm being serious here, since when? And to the point, why? Are they expecting big-time trouble? Bangkok is still great, but this is not even close to the Bangkok I remember.
MIDNITE HOUR:
We are getting a lot of similar correspondence lately. Some of our correspondents, like yourself, remember the laid back Bangkok of earlier times - - the 'Golden Age' by any measure.. While others, the relative newcomers, are saying they don't want to hear about it - they don't want to hear a bunch of old men crying in their beers about "The Good Old Days", referring to it as the 'Nostalgia Factor' and other like terms. Having been here since the 60's, we can verify that the Bangkok Nightlife of old is nothing like the Bangkok Nightlife of recent times. And its not just Nana Plaza, and its not just buzz-cut paramilitaries stroking up and down the corridors like pint-sized Rambos shining lasers in your eye. Some establishments are adopting (along with bouncers) dress codes directly from L. A.'s Sunset Strip. Old friends have been turned away from these overtly pretentious Venues for wearing sandals with sox. Other venues are exacting a cover charge - something unimaginable in the Bangkok of an earlier year. All we can say is anyone stupid enough to pay a cover charge, when they can walk down the soi for two minutes and visit another venue, deserves to have their money stripped from their pockets. In times past, when tourists took a girl out of a bar, or met a girl at a coffee shop, the assumption was it was for all-night, and the likelihood of a trip to Pattaya for a few days if the 'compatibility factor' so indicated... Today the assumption (or stated up front) is one or two hours, max.
Today, visiting an A Go-Go bar, you wonder why the dancers are undulating or walking slowly back and forth on stage and not A Go-Go dancing? It's because they can't - oh, physically they can dance, but have you ever tried to dance, or even imagine anyone trying to dance to the techno-crap 'music' they play? When the managers are asked about their droning synthetic music, their reply is, universally, 'This is what the people want!" Oh really? I can't recall anyone requesting a D.J. to play thump, thump, thump.  And while we are on the subject of D.J.s, any Nitespot could have 100 hours of danceable rock on a thumb-drive, and just play that on 'random' every night. D.J.s are as indispensable to Night Entertainment as zits on your gluteus maximus.
And then there are the Venues - in days of old, each bar had an elaborately crafted 'theme' - the Mississippi Queen had a river boat theme, the Sea-Hag had a South-Sea Island theme, the Madrid had Spanish decor.. etc. - the customer's comfort and pleasure was the object. Today it's obvious the bars just don't care, we get chrome poles and mirrors, lots of mirrors (mirrors for the dancers to preen themselves while they are shuffling back and forth on stage). While, in the meantime, we are hustled into tiered 'church pew' style seating which allows for maximum occupancy (as opposed to comfortable seating of old) - often being asked what we would like to drink before our butts hit the wood.
The above partial list of differences between 'The Good Old Days' and today is just that - a partial list. So for those relative newcomers, it would be pointless to try to explain the differences between Bangkok's Golden Age and today, because they have no frame-of-reference. I repeat here the Old-Guy's universal refrain, "Whatever happened to sanuk? "
READER :
In the 1980s used to go to a go go bar that was on Patpong one and I believe close to Surawong. It was owned by a German named Robert. The interior was black and there were busts of ancient greeks and romans as décor. Bells were on the tables and you could ring them when you wanted a refill. There was a fast food hamburger joint across the street. I can't remember the name and it’s driving me crazy. Thanks.
MIDNITE HOUR:
Unfortunately, there is more than one possible answer which fits your description. Two bars at the Surawong end of PP1 come to mind. The first is Gas Light, which was Classically fitted out. The second bar was Max's, also with extensive interior decorations. But these bars were lounge / music bars more so than A Go-Go.
In the late 80's there was a place called Mango Brutus at the Surawong end of PP1, which I never visited (A Go-Go?). Across Patpong 1 from this Venue was the Magic Grill, which might have been fast food/ hamburgers...
Hope this helps.
As the Patpong 1 Night Entertainment Area continues to slowly reopen (good news), a lot has to happen to remove the ghostly dark appearance. The once-famous (infamous) Entertainment Area is still a long way from regaining a 'critical mass' of viable Venues. (Video filmed 31 May 2022.)

PATPONG 1
The big surprise this month is the full reopening of Radio City (2 levels - pool upstairs). Hopefully an encouragement to other Nitespots... Format : hostesses and A Go-Go dancing. May they continue to rock...
VIDEO CLIP
PATPONG 1
The sign-less Happiness has opened anew in the hallowed grounds that once was home to the Mississippi Queen. Modus operandi : open-fronted lounge. May Fate deal them aces and faces...
PATPONG 1
Last month we noted the reopening of the 5th level Emperor Club but had no accompanying photo. The below pic for the archives... Located above Shenanigans. May they keep on keeping on...
PATPONG 1
Although we have walked past this near-prehistoric sign more times than we care to remember, it never once registered in our frontal lobes. A sharp-eyed documentarian (you know who you are) spotted it from a thousand yards and brought it to our attention. It must be an omen.... Note the antiquated spelling of 'Patpong' - rarely seen these days. Definitely one for the archives...
PATPONG 1
Venues open May 2022 through 1 June 2022 :
*King's Castle 1 - REMAINS OPEN
*King's Castle - REMAINS OPEN
*Emperor Club - REMAINS OPEN - 5th level above Shenanigans.
*Tip Top - - REMAINS OPEN - as a Pool Bar.
*Wong Barber - REMAINS OPEN
*Derby King - REMAINS OPEN
*Shenanigans - REMAINS OPEN - (On Suriwong Road)
*Unnamed massage parlor - REMAINS OPEN - Upstairs above Thigh Bar.
Patpong 2 remained busy but static (with regards Venues in transition) over the last month, with the exception of the Top Less Pool Bar which has closed temporarily yet again (it has never been topless). We'll take another look, see if it has sprung back to life next month's issue.
The Lucky Star / Long Gun has emerged from the Covid doldrums and has rolled out the red carpet once again. All is status quo ante. May they continue to rage against the Machine.
SOI COWBOY
The Cockatoo has reopened once again. May they persevere.
Nana Plaza appears to be operating near-full strength with the further reopening of previously Covid-closedVenues. This month we see the reopening of Obsession at ground level, the Butterflies on the 3rd level, and the Angel Witch and the DC-10, both on the 2nd level. Let's keep this party rolling...
The long wait is over for the regulars at the Bangcockney Pub, which reopened this last month in its bigger and much improved digs. Located where they always were, at the junction of Soi 6 and Soi Nana. Say no more...
SOI NANA - (SOI 4 SUKHUMVIT)
Last month we included a pic of the new 2nd level Swan Mak Muan, which had replaced the Swan Karaoke (which lasted only one month). This month they have also closed, and are switching out signage again, apparently becoming a karaoke or a disco... More on this next month when they will have yet another new bit of neon up. This musical chairs is hard to keep track of - hopefully they will be able to settle on what they want to be....
Although Soi Katoey remains fully open for the 3rd month, the upstairs Hugs appears to be up to it's old tricks of disappointing it's regular customers by opening and closing in a most irregular manner, without notice. Let's see how long this lasts...
The White Night Bar has relocated out of Subsoi Lemongrass to larger, greatly improved digs on Subsoi Hana. Replacing what was the Flavour 22 Bar, which closed 2 months ago. Located in the small subsoi just past the Marriott Hotel. Get down tonight...
SOI 22
Venues in transition May through 1 June 2022. Nitespots reported OPEN last month remain open.
The Alchemist has opened newly midway down Soi Ambassador (Sukhumvit Soi 11). They started out years ago as Meow Meow in Queens Park Plaza, moving eventually to Soi 7 Plaza. Just as they were changing their name there in Soi 7, the Entertainment Area was hit with extended closures by the authorities. They didn't wait around to see what would eventually happen - they pulled up stakes and moved to Soi Ambassador, adopting the new Alchemist handle. Let the good times roll...
SOI AMBASSADOR
(Sukhumvit Soi 11)
Last month we noted the impending opening of Dragon Bar, and are pleased to note they did open in the month of May. They are located in Soi 11/1 next door to the new Rock & Legend live music venue. Let the nightgames begin.
SOI AMBASSADOR
(Sukhumvit Soi 11)
After an extended Covid layoff, the Sugar Club is once again in the thick of it. Complete with new door-bouncers and improved lighting. The Sugar Club is an 'open till late' club. Welcome them back to the bright lights, big city...
SOI AMBASSADOR
(Sukhumvit Soi 11)
As noted last month, Big B's Pool Bar relocated from Soi 7 Plaza to the former One For The Road (next to the defunct Apoteka). For whatever reason, they were closed on 1 June when we passed by (22:15 hrs). We saw a small sign in Thai language saying they are urgently hiring, but that was it. We'll keep an ear to the ground, and should their status change, we shall so report...
SOI AMBASSADOR
(Sukhumvit Soi 11)
Venues that transitioned from March through 1 June 2022. (Not inclusive of above.)
As new rumors come to replace the old, the Soi 7 Plaza remains very much closed, no confirmed reopening date as of our 31 May survey. A dreary look from inside - looking out at Soi 7 - only the 10 Baht pay toilets remain in operation for the street bar staff and customers..
VIDEO CLIP
The Corner 7 is the latest to abandon Soi 7 Plaza (the fourth, that we are aware of). The other three are Big B's (to Soi Ambassador), the Alchemist which was Meow Meow a long time ago (to Soi Ambassador), and Private (to Soi 22). Is it too soon to say the crew is abandoning the sinking ship?
The Hunny Bunny BKK Specialty Massage has opened in the long-closed SKV33 Massage deep in the Soi. Rub a dub dub...
SOI DEAD ARTIST (Sukhumvit Soi 33)
The Nippon-oriented Jasmine Club Snack Bar & Karaoke, opened in the Covid-closedKocho Ran in Subsoi Pan Pan. Welcome to the vicissitudes...
SOI DEAD ARTIST (Sukhumvit Soi 33)
The New Mystique Specialty Massage, opened in the old Survey Entertainment lounge (which didn't quite make it out of the Covid-winter)... May the New Mystique always have a chinchoke on their wall...
SOI DEAD ARTIST (Sukhumvit Soi 33)
The RIP has survived the Covid plague, once again throwing open its doors to the (Japanese) public. Located midway down Soi Pan Pan on the left. May they continue to party.
The Cool Sports Bar, has taken down their signage and the premises remain in darkness... (Yet some are still playing pool on pool tables in the open area...) We'll be keeping an eye open on this... there is no sign saying they will be returning, or that they are 'Renovating', so it's a wait-and-see on a possible reopening... We have removed them from the 'roster' in the interim...
This month Midnite Hour reviews 1965's hottest Nightclubs in the Land of Smiles. We should note for the record that we are covering Bangkok's independent Nightclubs - leaving the 'Nightclub-style' entertainment found in the major hotels for a future article.
The Starlight located dead-center in the New Road Night Entertainment Area was known for its wide variety of foreign entertainment and a large selection of female 'dance partners'.
The Sani Chateau was perhaps the most active in bringing in acts from abroad, (until the opening of Cafe de Paris - see below), and had a long history of name-entertainers of the day. They were located in the now-redeveloped Gaysorn Night Entertainment Area.
The Garden Cafe was of course much more than just a cafe. They were located on Oriental Avenue - off New Road in a cluster of Night Entertainment Venues in that area. They generally had live music performed by the several Philippine musicians that made their home in Thailand in the 60's and 70's. They generally worked the circuit of expat Nite Spots, sometimes playing two or three gigs in an evening.
September 1965 marked the opening of the Cafe de Paris, just across Surawong Road from the rapidly rising Patpong 1. Their opening was covered in detail -from a culinary viewpoint- by Friar Tuck (Bernard Trink) of The Bangkok World newspaper (18 Sep '65 edition). It would become one of the more popular Night Venues in Bangkok, featuring a wide variety of imported entertainment acts, a popular coffee shop (the Carnation) and a bevy of hostesses. Note the hours of operation - 6:30 a.m. - 03:00 a.m..... (We suspect that should read, '6:30 p.m.'?)
The Green Palms, not often remembered today, was a heavily advertised and attended Nightclub in it's day. It was located on Ploenchit Road approximately across the street from Gaysorn Night Entertainment Area. We note they were one of several Nitespots that had 'Tea Dances' in the afternoons on weekends. The 'Tea Dance' style of entertainment died out almost completely in the late 1970's. They also had 'free Hamburg' on Saturdays..... does anyone know what that is...?
The New Champagne Room was yet another of the large-format Nightclubs popular with the expat community, featuring entertainment of most all varieties from abroad. Located on what was then informally called Customs House Lane, one of the many sois off of New Road. Regret to inform; we don't know anything about Jenny Lee.
