Where to Celebrate New Year’s Eve 2025 – 2026 in Phuket?
What are the best party places for New Year’s Eve in Phuket? This is a big question that is coming up soon. New Year is a day like no other, and this is the place to be! Phuket is pretty much a party all year round, so you can expect some serious happening all around the island.
Every hotel will have a gala dinner with some poolside entertainment, and the main beaches will see fireworks: places where people party all year round will have to deliver something even more significant, a party you will never forget. Nightclubs and Beach clubs will blast the countdown, and the party will be wild all night long. This is the night you want to remember! (see also Christmas Events Here)

Hotels Events Calendar
New Year’s Eve is the golden night for most hotels in Phuket. Room rates are high, and the gala dinner by the pool is often compulsory (and expensive). Check online before you book to know if your hotel does or does not include that compulsory dinner with a show. It’s not bad, but some visitors prefer to party out there.

Anywhere on Bangla Road
| Location: Patong Beach |
Bangla is party central all year round, so this famous street will be even more crowded tonight. Every bar gets full, and the atmosphere is unique on this night. If you don’t plan for the New Year, walk up and down until you spot a bar or a club that talks to you. It’s not sophisticated or romantic. It’s loud, colourful, messy, and 100% party animal. If you come for a wild night, this is your best bet. Read more about Bangla.

Celebrate 2026 in a Beach Club!
Cafe Del Mar
| Location: Kamala Beach |
Cafe Del Mar confirms that Phuket is the right place for a beach party beach club with good music, great drinks and, most of all, notorious parties. Since beach clubs all learned the hard way that you can’t have your club right on the beach, Cafe Del Mar did what the new generation of beach clubs did: build on the very edge of the beach line, usually under the trees.

Catch Beach Club

Open: 9 am – 2 am
Phone: 065 348 201
XANA Beach Club
| Location: Bangtao Beach |
Beach clubs are a great way to celebrate the new year. It’s more tropical and less hectic than the nightclubs of Patong, but you still can party, drink and dance all you want. If you need a break, you can walk on the beach and step away from the noise. You could swim, but we wouldn’t recommend it; alcohol and dark ocean don’t mix well. Read more

Address: 10 Moo 4 Srisoonthorn Road, Choeng Thale, Phuket 83110
Open: Daily 11 am – 10 pm

Rooftop Bars (or anywhere high above Patong)
Phuket doesn’t have fantastic rooftop bars like Bangkok, but things are changing fast. Since Patong always has the most impressive fireworks, picking one of the rooftops is best. You are lucky if your hotel has a high floor facing the ocean. If not, The Kee Resort and Surface at La Flora Resort have good panoramic terraces to drink and celebrate in style. Note that these rooftops are quite small and will probably be crowded, too. Read more

The club originally opened in Bangkok in 2014 before expanding to Phuket, bringing with it a reputation for hosting top-tier hip-hop events and international acts. Since its debut on Bangla Road, Sugar Club has quickly become a landmark destination for fans of urban music seeking an authentic club experience.
Paradise Beach
| Location: Near Patong Beach |
Paradise Beach hosts the Full Moon Festival on 31 December, transforming the cove into a celebration beneath the stars. Located just 4 kilometres south of Patong Beach, this small sheltered bay offers an alternative to the main beach’s crowded festivities. The event features Phuket’s top DJs spinning throughout the night, alongside fire dancers performing spectacular acts as the full moon rises. A free shuttle service transports visitors directly from designated Phuket locations, eliminating transport hassle. The countdown culminates at midnight with fireworks lighting up the Andaman sky whilst guests count down together. Food and drinks are available throughout the evening, with an entry fee of 1,000 to 1,500 baht per person (entry only). The beach’s natural setting, surrounded by palm trees and a coral reef, creates a unique backdrop for celebrations.
Paradise Complex

Paradise Complex sits at the foot of the Royal Paradise Hotel in Patong Beach and has been the centre of Phuket’s gay nightlife scene for more than twenty years.

Popular spots include Zag Club, known for its three-zone layout and nightly street performances, and Tangmo, a long-running venue featuring male go-go dancers and drag shows.
