10 Best Rooftops for Parties in Bangkok

First, the honest answer to the question we get in our DMs every single day: no, you cannot find a rooftop party on any random night of the week. Hit a rooftop on a Monday or Tuesday and, whichever one you choose, you will probably find a calm, quiet room. Bangkok's real party energy lands on the weekend, and on a few specific nights worth knowing.

Aether is our top party rooftop. Fridays and Saturdays are the nights, with renowned international DJs and a line-up the team genuinely invests in. It is a little quieter through the rainy season (roughly April to October), so the biggest parties tend to return after October.

Pastel is the other one to put on your list: DJs and entertainment most nights, big weekend crowds, and a Ladies' Night every Thursday.

Amber Bar has stepped up its game with a heavy, varied schedule of party nights, networking and private events, all paired with one of the best, most intimate views in the city and a covered indoor section that makes it a smart rainy-season choice.

A note on Tichuca: tourists cite it constantly for its glowing light-tree and photo spots, but we would skip the queue when so many better rooftops have none. And for something different, Above Eleven runs a fun, beginner-friendly salsa and bachata night on Wednesdays. Check our events page and the picks below for what is on.
