Best clubs for international tourists

Tourists who seek an internationally more common nightlife scene should consider first Republic, Insomnia, Lucifer and 808. Republic is best for EDM, Insomnia is suitable for mainstream nightclubs, Lucifer will suit you if you like hip-hop and R&B and 808 is for a younger crowd and hip-hop oriented.

Best clubs for couples

Couples can visit almost any of the mainstream Walking Street nightclubs. Republic and Insomnia will be more suitable options for an international style of clubbing, Lucifer will be a good option if you and your partner enjoy hip-hop and R&B. Couples who love Bollywood music should try Jalwa, Jannaat or Leela.

Best clubs for groups

Groups usually enjoy the bigger size of clubs because there is more space, better table service and coordination. The good options for groups are Republic, Jannaat, Jalwa and Leela. If you want to have a bottle or get VIP seating, make sure to know about minimum spend, bottle price, mixers, service charge and how many people fit into one table.

The Best Clubs for Night Owls

Walking Street can get quite active after midnight. Insomnia usually reaches its peak around midnight to 3:30 AM and operates till about 5:00 AM while Lucifer runs till approximately 5:30 AM. In case you wish to party till dawn, do not burn up all your money and energy within the first two hours.

The Best Clubs for VIP Tables

The large clubs on Walking Street are famous for VIP tables. Republic, Jalwa, Jannaat, and Leela are some of the nightclubs where groups can enjoy bottle service at the reserved table. Never commit yourself until you know the total minimum charge of the table first. The cost of bottles, mixers, admission fees, etc. are not always part of the first quoted figure.

Best Club for Your First Night

Insomnia is an easy club to go to on the first night, as it appeals to a wide range of people and has different types of music. Republic is the place to go for EDM, while Jalwa, Jannaat, and Leela are best for Bollywood. If you prefer hip hop, then try Lucifer and 808. The best thing about Walking Street is that these clubs are all located in one area, making it easy to switch clubs if you don’t like the vibe of the place.

What Time Should You Arrive?

Walking Street nightclubs usually build gradually.

• 9:00 PM–10:30 PM: dinner, bars and early nightlife
• 10:30 PM–midnight: clubs begin filling
• Midnight–2:00 AM: stronger nightclub atmosphere
• After 2:00 AM: late-night venues become more important

Insomnia’s busiest period is currently listed around 12:30 AM to 3:30 AM, which gives a good indication of how late Walking Street clubbing can peak.

Club Entrance Fee

Free general entry is available in several clubs on the Walking Street, on standard days. Free entrance is currently being offered by both Insomnia and 808, and Lucifer does not seem to have any entrance fee as well. Republic usually has free entrances but sometimes charges entrance fee for international DJ evenings. Your expenditure will mainly be towards drinks, bottles, tables and VIP services.

How Much Does It Cost to Go to the Club?

An average night at the club with individual drinks will usually fall within ฿1,500 – ฿3,000 per individual. However, premium bottles, VIP tables, and celebration with large groups will take your expenditure above ฿5,000 – ฿10,000 or even more.

What Should You Wear

The nightclub dress code in Pattaya is quite casual. The safest way to go about it is to dress in smart casuals which will include a proper shirt or a T-shirt, decent shorts/jeans and good footwear.

Freelancers, Hostesses and Ladyboys at Nightclubs in Walking Street

Certain nightclubs in Walking Street employ freelancers, hostesses, bar girls and ladyboys, especially later at night. However, crowds of people in clubs are diverse and consist of tourists, locals, couples, groups of friends and Thai patrons, so do not assume reasons for any person being at a particular place. In case when two adults want to talk about the issue of companionship, then this is a totally different story from what concerns the drinking in a nightclub and entrance and VIP rates.

A Simple Club-Hopping Plan

You do not need to visit every major nightclub in one night.

9:30 PM: walk Walking Street and check the atmosphere
10:00 PM: start with a relaxed drink
11:30 PM: choose your main club
1:30 AM: stay or move to a second venue
After 2:00 AM: continue at a late-night club if you still want to party

A good rule is to choose two main clubs before going out rather than trying to fit six or seven venues into one night.

Common Clubbing Mistakes

Avoid these common first-night mistakes:

• choosing a club only because it looks busy;
• arriving too early and assuming the venue is always quiet;
• booking VIP seating without checking the minimum spend;
• trying to visit too many clubs;
• losing track of a shared bill;
• drinking too heavily before midnight;
• forgetting to keep money aside for transport.

A little planning usually makes the night both easier and cheaper.

Clubbing Safety Tips

Take care of your wallet and mobile phone, do not leave your drinks untouched, and be careful about prices when buying bottles or premium tables. Check the bill often instead of waiting until the end of the day, especially when ordering drinks from one table. For serious help as a tourist in Thailand, call the Tourist Police on 1155.

Which Walking Street Club is Right for You?

There is no club which is best for all. Go to Republic if you want EDM and international DJs, go to Insomnia if you want mainstream clubs, choose from Jalwa, Jannaat or Leela if you like Bollywood and Punjabi music, Lucifer if you want Hip-hop and late-night entertainment, and choose 808 for modern Hip-hop. The wise thing to do is pick two or three clubs according to your choice of music and see which one suits you the best.
