Women of Bangkok, this time, it’s for you gals. International Women’s Day 2024 is coming up, so grab your girlfriends, feel the sisterhood, and make it the night out of the year.
International Women’s Day is celebrated on 8 March every year. In Bangkok, International Women’s Day is about going out and feeling the female camaraderie. It’s still a man’s man’s man’s world, but the more we keep being who we are and highlighting each other’s accomplishments, we get closer to it not being as such.
So, call up the gang and see where to celebrate International Women’s Day in Bangkok.
