Illuzion Phuket Nightclub in Patong Beach
Illuzion is the biggest club on Bangla Road in Patong. It’s ranked #9 in DJ Mag’s Top 100 Clubs worldwide for 2025, up from #48 a few years ago. That’s not marketing fluff, the production quality is genuinely impressive. 6,500 square metres, capacity for 5,000 people, and a sound system that hits properly.
We’ve been several times over the years. The place started as a magic show venue in 2014, which explains the Las Vegas-style stage setup. They dropped the show to focus on the club, and it worked. On big nights with international DJs, it fills up fast.
Three Rooms
**Main Room** – The big one. Massive LED wall, Funktion-One sound, aerial performers, resident dancers. EDM, house, tech-house. This is where the headliners play.
**Empire** – Upstairs hip-hop room. Smaller, around 1,000 capacity. “The Notorious Friday” is their main hip-hop night. Past acts include Wiz Khalifa, Tyga, Nelly.
**Shelter** – Behind the main stage. Underground techno and minimal. 500 capacity. For people who actually care about the music.

Smart casual dress code. No beachwear, no flip-flops. Security is strict and they do turn people away.

They book properly. Martin Garrix, Tiësto, Steve Aoki, Marshmello, FISHER, Sven Väth, and Marco Carola have all played here. January 2026 had EDC Thailand after-parties with FISHER, Eli Brown, and others. Glitterbox and ANTS (Ibiza brands) are coming in early 2026.
For a club on Bangla Road, the programming is surprisingly credible.
