Pattaya Nightlife During Coronavirus Pandemic

Updated April 7, 2022 By Darren C

Since January 2022, Pattaya bars and nightlife venues have been re-opening after numerous forced closures due to Covid-19 coronavirus. Despite the still meager numbers of tourists in town and restrictive opening conditions, many of the bars that have chosen to open so far appear to have many customers.

As of March 2022, the busiest Pattaya bars and nightlife venues that have reopened are those in and around Soi Buakhao. Most gogo bars remain closed. The ones that have opened are not permitted to allow dancers on stage yet.

Some notable permanent Pattaya bar closures in late 2021 and early 2022 (see photos below) are Soi Made in Thailand and the Simon beer bar complex on Walking Street.

The photos on this page are of Pattaya bars and nightlife venues in various areas around Pattaya, before, during, and between periods of Pattaya nightlife lockdowns due to the Covid 19 Coronavirus pandemic.

Pattaya bars and nightlife lockdown periods:

  • 1st lockdown: March 18 to July 1, 2020
  • 2nd lockdown: December 30, 2020, to February 5, 2022
  • 3rd lockdown: April 9, 2021, to January 2022

Due to bars and nightlife venues being the first businesses to close and last to re-open during lockdowns, bar owners, Pattaya bar girls, and other staff employed at bars and nightlife venues were among the worst affected by Covid-19 restrictions in Pattaya.

Many bars in Pattaya turned to online “Pattaya girls live streams” to generate income for the remaining girls. Girls who lost their jobs sought alternative employment or returned to their family homes to live more cheaply until things got better.
