Is Pattaya worth the visit?

[Daveuk]

Things are looking up ! Toyboys used to have some hot boys, but the drinks prices were rather a rip-off. Cupidol varied over the years and was known for twinks. I’m due in Pats in a couple of weeks and will check out Boystown. I understand that Winner in Sunee is now open as a Gogo . The gay scene is waking up.

For those lucky enough to be in Thailand, The Venue Cabaret & Residence in Jomtien have announced two forthcoming events with accompanying photos on their facebook page. The first one is on June 11th, 2022 and the second one is on June 17th, 2022. According to their facebook page, reservations are being taken now for both events.

The facebook photos are copied below for all to enjoy.

Hi there, I'll be in Pattaya shortly are all the former gay massage places back to pre covid days. I know that Royal House and Scandic massages are open. Are there any others worth a mention. Cheers.

According to the latest information on The Venue Cabaret and Residence facebook page, preparations for the SWING Community Pride Party 2022 are now almost finished. And they say that the Venue show starts a little later tonight at 10:15pm, but is still a full length show. It sounds and looks like it will be a good night out.

Andy, I couldn’t see anything on YouTube covering the party at Jomtien, but there are several videos showing the International Pride Festival Parade on Pattaya Beach Road, two of which I have copied below.





A still photo from last night's party at Jomtien taken from The Venue Cabaret and Residence facebook page is posted below and there is a short 2 minute video on their facebook page, which can be found by clicking on the following link:

A friend in Pattaya posted some great photographs of Saturday’s Pride Parade on his facebook page, and has given me permission to post a selection of them here on Sawatdee.

He also asked me to include a link to his facebook page, where many more photos of the parade and other scenes from Thailand can be viewed.
