Nightlife in Phuket

Phuket's reputation as a partying hotspot is well-deserved and agreed by an international crowd of revellers who descend on the island. With go-go bars, ladyboy cabaret shows, discos and clubs, live bands and international DJs, there's everything that makes Thailand's party scene famous the world over.

While most parts of the island have their own small party scene, the place to be after dark is Bangla Road in Patong, with its bright neon lights, loud music and crowds of young party-lovers.
