Ladyboy shows offer some of the finest night-time entertainment in Bangkok with shows that are jam-packed with glitz, glam and a touch of humour. The performers are world-class and the draw-card for busloads of tourists every night. We have selected Bangkok's best ladyboy venues for you. Most have at least three shows every night, and after the shows you'd be able to take photographs of your favourite performers (generous tips are politely encouraged).
Calypso Cabaret
Founded in 1988, Calypso Cabaret has long been hailed as one of the cabaret show pioneers in Thailand. Conveniently located in the Asia Hotel and easily accessible by BTS (Rajchathewi), Calypso Cabaret delivers extravagant Broadway-style shows, as well as Thai classical dance, a comical Geisha repertoire, Chinese ballads and much more. Two performances are held every night (20:15 and 21:45).

Golden Dome Cabaret
Located in the Ratchada area. The best way to get there is by taking the subway (MRT) and getting off at Sutthisan station. From there you can either catch a taxi or just walk up Sutthisan Road (which should take 10 to 15 minutes). Golden Dome is at the end of the road. Three shows are held daily (17:00, 19:00 and 22:00).
Mambo Cabaret
Said to host the 'Queen' of the drag shows, Mambo Cabaret has all the glitz and glamour that one would expect of a ladyboy cabaret. The show is professional, polished and entertaining. As with most of the other shows, you will also get a chance to take a photo with the performers afterwards (expect to pay for this privilege). The venue is in the former Washington Theater between Sukhumvit Soi 22 and 24. Show times are at at 20:30 and 22:00 every night. |
