Bangkok Bar Show makes its boozy return for 2022
Founded by industry heavy-weights Niks Anuman-Rajadhon and Colin Chia, the Bangkok Bar Show prides itself in being Thailand’s only real trade show for the bar industry and its followers. An annual fair for lovers of fine spirits, it seems like Covid-19 only gave the power couple more fire to round up a glorious revival.
This year, they’re going bigger and better with a prime location inside the prestigious and historic Royal Bangkok Sports Club. Taking place right next to the horse-racing track at Henri Dunant Hall, the space will be transformed to showcase some of the best spirits in the region, and highlight notable personalities for all fans of the craft. The official dates for the show are 4-6 November, with a special opening party held at Zuma on 3 November. More deets below.
Seminars and masterclasses
All seminars will take place inside Henri Dunant Hall at the Royal Bangkok Sports Club. The curated series this year will focus on education, fine drinking, and inspiration.
