The Complex is open, I go there most nights just to check the lights are still on. Like last night it can be very quiet. The long weekends have been busier with visitors from Bangkok and the countryside.
The election will mean the bars are closed this Saturday night so the bars will lose out again. I am amazed some of the bars are still open with only a few customers each night but others have business from regular customers so they can pay the rent and staff. If there was another lockdown it would be the end for many bars in the Complex.

What is the Jomtien Complex like these days? I have only seen it during the day, no idea what it's like at night.

Jomtien Complex is doing quite well since the reopening on the 1st of February. It was so good to have all the bars open (apart from Kiss Bar which now has a for sale sign) and the lights on again. It is not packed full and of course the bars must close by 11pm, but there is plenty of life there again and I enjoy going to my favourite bar and chatting with the boss and a few friends.

Jomtien Complex is thriving compared to the other gay areas in Pattaya.
Virtually all the bars are open following the January lockdown.

There are few stunners and the clientele Is definitely geriatric and those there are more for socializing with other geriatrics, the boys remain bored and sit in groups amongst themselves, one must ask the obvious.....how do the boys survive?
Watch paint dry or sit in a JC bar and look at the ladys and ladyboys there. Or if you're lucky, look at the back of a cambodian boy with his back to you glued to a phonescreen.
Or maybe look up to the big metalic roof?
