For the classic view, go to Sky Bar at lebua (64th floor, walk-in, from 5 p.m.). For a party, go to Tichuca in Thonglor. For the highest seat in the city, go to Sky Beach at King Power Mahanakhon. Book Red Sky or Sky Beach ahead on Klook, dress smart casual, and carry ID, since Thailand's drinking age is 20.

We re-checked every hours line, entry rule and dress code on November 2, 2026, against each bar's own website and the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT). Bars change hours for private events, so check the venue page on the day. For a bar-by-bar reference of opening times and dress codes, see our Bangkok rooftop bar hours and dress codes guide.

You enter through the King Power Mahanakhon entrance, and Sky Beach guests can use the SkyWalk after 7 p.m. (The Standard).

Is Vertigo and Moon Bar at Banyan Tree open?

Not right now. Banyan Tree Bangkok says Vertigo and Moon Bar, on the 61st floor at 21/100 South Sathon Road, are temporarily closed for renovation and due to reopen on December 2, 2026 (Banyan Tree dining). Until then, Sky Bar and Sky Beach are the closest open rooftops for a Silom or Sathorn evening. See things to do in Silom for the rest of the area.

What should I wear to a rooftop bar in Bangkok?

Wear smart casual: long trousers or a smart skirt, a shirt with sleeves (for men), and proper shoes. The bars spell out what they refuse, as of November 2, 2026:

Sky Bar: no athletic wear, swimwear, sleeveless shirts for men, flip-flops or beach slippers (lebua).
Above Eleven: no sandals, flip-flops or Birkenstocks, and no sleeveless T-shirts for men.
The Speakeasy: smart casual.

The bars usually turn people away at the lift, not inside. Our hours and dress codes guide has the full list, and what to wear in Bangkok covers the rest of your trip.

Where can you party on a Bangkok rooftop?

Tichuca: free entry, DJs, 20+ only, original passport required.
The Speakeasy: DJ Thursday to Saturday from 7:45 p.m., free entry.
Above Eleven: salsa on Wednesdays and live music Thursday to Sunday from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m., open until 2 a.m.
Octave: open until 2 a.m. every night.

For more late-night ideas, see things to do in Bangkok at night and our Bangkok night markets guide.

What are the rules on drinking age and closing times?

TAT says the legal drinking age in Thailand is 20. Alcohol sales are generally allowed from 11 a.m. to midnight, with exceptions for hotels and licensed entertainment venues, which is why hotel rooftops can serve later. Sales may be restricted on election days and some religious holidays, and rooftop bars may close or stop serving alcohol on those dates (TAT News, May 2026). Carry your passport if you look under 30, and always carry it for Tichuca.
