Songkran is the Buddhist New Year festival, which takes place every year in mid-April. Around this time, Phuket and Bangkok host some of the biggest gay parties across all of Asia. But the thing to do in Songkran is chuck water at everyone.
Seriously – in Buddhism, this symbolizes the washing away of bad luck from the previous year. It cleanses you! And oh boy do we gays love a bit of cleansing?

Phuket&#;s gay nightlife scene is concentrated in a small area of Patong known as the Paradise Complex. This is a vibrant enclave of gay businesses in front of the Royal Paradise Hotel, just off Rat-U-Thit Highway. As well as bars and discos, the area also features restaurants, Internet caf&#;s, saunas and some accommodation.
The Boat Block, a disco offering nightly cabaret shows and an outside terrace bar, is probably the most popular and well-known of the venues here. Another long-standing favourite is My Way. This modern gay &#; go-go also puts on a lively cabaret production every night.
There are only a couple of gay venues in Patong to be found outside of the Paradise Complex: E-san La-prao and Maeng Cup, both tucked away down a minute street at the southern finish of Patong. Both are local style gay karaoke bars and are open very late.
