Concert halls Bangkok

This cabaret, located in the grand Asian gallery The Riverfront, is famous for its ladyboy shows. The show, inspired by the best cabarets in Las Vegas and Paris, is remarkable and flamboyant, a mix of the comical, the sexy and the strange. The impersonations and skits are all outstanding. Songs in English, Thai but also in Chinese, Japanese or Korean to satisfy the international clientele in the room. Possibility to have dinner on the spot. A very good time to share with the whole family.

The most grandiose and impressive local show traces seven centuries of history of the Kingdom of Siam. 150 artists participate in this fresco whose costumes and special effects are amazing. 2,000 people attend this American-style show every night. However, it is a pity that animals, especially elephants, are still part of the show... But we're in Thailand. Tickets are sold at a high price on the website, but with a bit of mischief you can buy them much cheaper through a travel agency...

Adjacent to the National Museum, the National Theatre programmes traditional Thai dances and music, very exotic shows for the western visitor. Khon's shows are breathtaking: the actors wear traditional masks, the costumes are incredibly fine, and the shows are set to the millimetre. The season runs from November to May, but music and dance performances take place on the last Fridays and Saturdays of each month. For connoisseurs and the curious.

Located in the Wittayakit building, the British Council Siam Square offers English courses in Bangkok. This allows students to find time slots to suit their busy schedules.

The Goethe-Institut in Bangkok, Thailand, is a language school offering online courses and on-site services.

This cultural centre opened its doors in April 1987. Regular performances are organized there. The programming of quality ballets and operas is becoming more and more frequent, but the prices are still quite high. Philharmonic concerts or Broadway-style shows can also be seen here. On the other hand, shows to promote local art are often free of charge. On the second floor there is a small museum dedicated to rice cultivation, language and literature, Thailand and the world, and the history of the country.
