Welcome to Weekend Warrior, where we offer you a few ideas to kick-start your weekend of mayhem. Warriors, go forth.
Friday
DANCE: Super Star Panda @ Glow by With Love
Bangkok’s favorite cute and cuddly DJ has grown into an international beast this past year – becoming a celebarted Thai import in the European underground market. So, Superstar Panda is celebrating with a five-hour set of fresh house and techno licks at Glow Nightclub. Last year was an absolutely circus, so expect nothing less this time around!
10pm. THB 350 including one drink. Glow Nightclub, Sukhumvit 23. BTS Asoke Station, MRT Sukhumvit Station.
EAT, DRINK, ‘N’ BE MERRY: The Last Supper at Bed Supperclub followed by Dudesweet “Bedtime Story”
Bed Supperclub’s last days in existence are upon us. On Friday night, the venue will do one last dinner service on the white mattresses. “The Last Supper” is going to be a four course set menu of signature dishes by a past Bed Chef de Cuisine. You’re best to call and make a reso, as this should likely book up fast.
Afterwards, Bed has graciously handed over the reins of the final Friday to party aficionados Dudesweet. Starting at 9pm, the booze ‘n’ schmooze starts up with a THB 150 beers all night on stock clearance special. But take the advice of the Facebook event page, why don’t you: “There’s a 7-11 nearby. Drinks are much cheaper there. Please get drunk before you get in.” Expect outlandish outfits, indie rock remixes and gaudy buckets of fun. Bed’s final farewell party is on Saturday night.
8pm. Dinner is THB 2,800 with free admission to Dudesweet. Admission to Dudesweet is THB 300 including one drink. Bed Supperclub, Sukhumvit 11. BTS Station Nana.
Kentaro Okamoto was the first world championship turntablelist to come away with a perfect score back in 2002 – since then, his life has been a whirlwind of global performances and Bangkok is next on that list. DJ Kentaro’s set promises forward-thinking hiphop and impressive technique beyond the typical crab scratch and cut-ups.
9pm. THB 600 including one drink. Q Bar, Sukhumvit 11. BTS Station Nana.
Saturday
SHOP: Bangkok Farmer’s Market at K-Village
The Bangkok Farmer’s Market is back for its monthly extravaganza of organic produce, homemade food and goodies from fresh sandwiches, gluten-free baking to roasted tomatoes and much more. Try to drop in before noon hour, as the in-demand items tend to disappear fast.
Saturday and Sunday, 9am to 5pm. K-Village Shopping Complex, Sukhumvit 26. BTS Station Phrom Pong.
Here’s a night for the record books. After eleven years of international DJs, manic dancing and the sounds of house, salsa and everything in between, this is Bed’s final evening before shutting the doors. The nightclub’s creative team been pretty quiet about details, which can only fuel our imagination as to what sorts of histrionics could occur. Bed’s crew of resident DJs will also take turns hitting the decks for one last time.
7:30pm. THB 1,000 including one drink with canapé. Bed Supperclub, Sukhumvit 11. BTS Station Nana.
DJ Nakadia is back from Berlin for this homecoming, six-hour set at Glow Nightclub. This will be Nakadia’s last show in Bangkok for a few months, as she continues to take Europe’s electronic scene by storm. Look forward to proper techno and tech house from Thailand’s leading lady of underground.
10pm. THB 350 including one drink. Glow Nightclub, Sukhumvit 23. BTS Station Asoke, MRT Station Sukhumvit.
