- The two big clubs
- Hollywood and Differ

What a Thai club night in Pattaya is like
A Thai club night in Pattaya is a group night. You don't stand at the bar; you book a table for the whole group, order bottles for the table and the night happens around it. The Thai clubs are where the Thai crowd goes out, and they sit away from Walking Street, so the night has a different feel from the tourist strip.
The music mixes Thai and international: Hollywood, for one, lists live bands, a dancers' show, and Thai and international DJs and MCs on its own Instagram. If you want to see how Thais party, this is it.
We get you in. Tanner books the table, your host meets the car, and the club bills the table. Ask Tanner which club suits your group.
Hollywood Pattaya
Hollywood is the big Thai variety club in the Third Road area of central Pattaya, not on Walking Street (Google Maps, 8 November 2026): a live band, a dancers' show, and DJs and MCs, all in one night. It's open every night, with a special show every weekend, its own Instagram says, and Google Maps lists 9pm to 2am.
Who it's for: a group that wants the show and the band, not just a DJ. Insider tip: the weekend show fills Friday and Saturday first, so book the table before the weekend. More in our Hollywood Pattaya guide.
Differ Night Club
Differ is the other big Thai room, on Phettrakul Road near Central Marina and Terminal 21. Google Maps lists it open every night from 8pm to 3am. Book a table for the group, and the night happens around it.
Who it's for: a group that wants a Thai club close to the North Pattaya malls, and a late finish. Ask Tanner what's on at Differ for your date.
The Thai bars: where the night starts and ends
Before and after the clubs, the Thai night runs through its bars. These six are listed on Google Maps (checked 8 November 2026); the hours are the ones they list, so Tanner confirms the night before you go.
- Mahanakhon, 63/5 South Pattaya Road: 7pm to 4am. A live-music bar, and the late finish.
- Sure Pattaya, 80/15 Moo 9: 7pm to 4am. The last stop of the night.
- Khon La Fan, Third Road: 5pm to 3am. An early start with the group.
- Chalermkrung Vintage, Pattaya Klang, Central Pattaya: 6pm to 2am. Starting the night.
- Siri Clubhouse, Pattaya: 6pm to 2am. Drinks before the club.
- Rave, 60/15-17 South Pattaya Road: 5:30pm to 2am. Early drinks.
Tanner's pick for a Thai night: drinks at Khon La Fan, Hollywood for the show, then Mahanakhon to finish. Ask Tanner to hold a table at each stop.
Thai club or Walking Street club?
For a Thai night out with a band and a show, Hollywood. For a late Thai room near the malls, Differ. For an international club night with big guest DJs, Walking Street and the big EDM rooms: Insomnia, Republic and World House.
The best plan does both. Tanner's pick for a weekend: Hollywood on Saturday for the show, and a Walking Street club on Friday for the DJs. See Walking Street and all the best clubs in Pattaya.

Tables at the Thai clubs
Neither Hollywood nor Differ publishes table prices. Each club quotes the table for the date and bills it on the night; Hollywood takes table bookings through its LINE account, linked from its Instagram bio. Tanner gets the price for your night, holds the best table the club offers and has your host waiting at the door. For a bigger group, Tanner asks the club for two tables side by side. Ask Tanner to hold yours before the weekend.
Dress code and ID
Neither club publishes a dress code, so smart casual is safe: a shirt or smart T-shirt, long trousers or smart jeans, and closed shoes. The drinking age in Thailand is 20, and clubs check ID, so bring your original passport. Ask Tanner what the door wants on your night.
Getting there and home
Both clubs are away from Walking Street, so the easy way is your own car, waiting outside all night. Our luxury van with a driver is from ฿6,500 for 10 hours for up to 4 guests, and the party van is ฿3,500 each way from Bangkok for up to 10. Tanner matches the cars to your plan. See transport in Pattaya.
Licensed entertainment venues in Chonburi, including Pattaya, and licensed venues inside hotels may open until 4am; ordinary bars and restaurants close earlier, usually by 2am. After the club, the party can carry on at your own pool villa, from ฿12,500 a day. For every club and VIP table, see Pattaya nightclubs. Plan it with Tanner.
