About LGBTQ+ Pattaya

Pattaya has one of the densest gay scenes in Asia, centered on the Jomtien Complex, two blocks holding more than 30 gay bars, restaurants, and massage shops, with the older Boyztown off Pattaya Soi 13/4 rebuilding its bars and cabaret shows. The beach resort pairs an around-the-clock nightlife with a gay-popular stretch of Dongtan Beach in Jomtien. Thailand legalized same-sex marriage in 2025, and Pattaya, an easy trip from Bangkok, stays busy year-round as one of the region's top gay getaways.
