One of Bangkok’s legendary Songkran pool parties is back for 2019
W Bangkok's big Songkran bash is back and as good as ever
W Bangkok’s Songkran pool party has been around longer than most expats reading this. This is one of the only times of the year when the hotel opens up its huge open-air pool to outsiders for a party (the sunset views are IG gold, by the way), and is known for its vibey dance atmosphere, great crowd and plenty of good drinks—it also sells out pretty much every year. This year’s Songkran Splash Away Weekend from Apr 13-14 is set for one of its biggest years yet when DJs Dave Soul, DJ Orawan (W Bangkok’s Music Curator), Sunju, Mendy Indigo hit the decks on day one for some energetic fun.
Day two sees W team up with the folks from Blaq Lyte (winners of BK’s BAD Awards “Best New Bar of 2017” and the masterminds behind Bangkok Block Party) to bring DJ Vnazz, DJ Keigo, Ralphy.wav and Wanton Witch to take over the turntables.
All of this takes place on the WET Deck outdoor pool between 2-9pm and is a great way to kick off your Songkran festivities.
A one-day pass costs you B790 for presale (includes one free drink before 3pm), and B990 after that. If you want to use the party as a launching pad for a couple of days, get the two-day pass: B1,200 for presale (includes one free drink/day before 3pm), and B1,600 after. Table packages are also available from B10,000 inclusive of drinks and ticket passes if you want to feel like a high roller.
For hardcore party people, W Bangkok also offers a room package with accommodation. Starting from B8,450++/night, the package includes a two-night stay in any room type, daily breakfast buffet, a two-day pass with one free drink per day per person.
