TheFiend Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 JUNE 12, 2006 THE SIXTIETH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATIONS OF HIS MAJESTY’S ACCESSION TO THE THRONE I am coming to Thailand on the 6th of June for 2 weeks and have come across this. I am wondering if the bars will be closed on this day. Will most things be closing down for the day? Or is it just part of a series of events.

Joey Boy Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 Its not strictly illegal for bars to open on days like this, even if there main places are deserted you'll still find somewhere to have a beer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axel Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 In Thailand the law enforcement is very polite. Police just walks around and ask the owners/managers not to serve alcohol on specific days. Just a friendly request, you don't have to follow. Eer, never knew anybody who did not follow. Of course, there are places where you find a drink, but that's a different story.

Unless it's an election day, then the law is very strict. (But some bar owners will still take a risk and serve alcohol.) But you should be OK on June 12th. It's a celebration, for goodness' sake!
