Many folks go to Pattaya, Thailand and celebrate some occasion while they are there. Whether it be an anniversary, birthday, divorce, or nothing in particular, there are plenty of party venues to schedule your special event.
I have been going to Thailand for over 30 years, have made numerous friends there – both Thai and Expat and highly recommend the following venues:
1. The FLB bar – owned by Martin and managed by Ricky down on Walking Street past the big tree – this is a very friendly hostess bar that will cater to your every whim. For about 12,000 Baht, about 300 dollars, you will have the time of your life. Excellent food from the Sportsman bar, great, live entertainment from the Ugly Brothers band and some of the friendliest ladies in Pattaya. Martin also runs an excellent forum at pattayatalk.com.
2. Cherry Bar – on Soi 8 and owned by a very friendly Brit – Adam. Adam has devoted his life to making this bar successful on a street lined wall-to-wall with similar bars. He does an excellent job of promoting his quaint little bar and bends over backwards to make you feel at home. And, you don’t even have to be a Brit to have a great time here.
3. Lennies Bar – on Soi Diamond between Walking Street and 2nd Road – Paul, the manager, will ease all of your worries and make you feel at home as soon as you walk in the door. As Eric Clapton said, this place will “ease you worried mind”. Parties can be arranged easily – just see Paul.
4. Tequila Queen #2 – just off of Walking Street and partially owned by Bob of Bob’s BBQ – small, air-conditioned go-go bar that guarantees great food and a super time. It may be small, but the fun will be huge.
5. Secrets Bar – Last but not least by any means. Ben used to be the manager at FLB but has moved onward and upwards and has set up his own bar, restaurant and hotel – the Secrets Hotel and Bar. On Soi 14 – just off of Walking Street Ben will ensure that you will have a super time. Ben is the host with the most and I have known him for over 7 years – he will take care of all your needs. Ben also runs a great forum at pattayasecrets.com. The restaurant at Secrets – food you would not believe, caters parties here.
So, if you are heading out to Pattaya, plan a party. It can be for any occasion or just for the heck of it.

Pattaya walking street. Everything that you will want is on one street.. It is much easier than in the phillipenes where you will have to take a taxi anywhere you want to go.

I have been to both many times and there is no comparision to Pattaya walking street.

Thailand and the Philippines have interesting nightlife activities. Both countries are easy to get around in. I think Thailand does tourism a little better than the P.I. (You have to do something during the day – right?)
From Bangkok you can take a bus from Ekamai or Mochit bus stations for around 115 baht on an air conditioned bus. The ride will take around 2 to 2.5 hours, the bus will have luggage storage and a toilet on board.
Do some Yahoo and Google searches using "nightlife in Pattaya" or "nightlife in Angeles City or Manila" and see what comes back.
Beer is cheaper in the Philippines and there are more frequent happy hours. In Pattaya tours are cheaper and restaurants are pretty good! If you get an airconditioned hotel in Pattaya and a hotel in Angeles City for around $20 the Pattaya Hotel will have more to offer and look better and even have use of a security box and refrigerator!
Have fun.

I am a Filipina but prefer to party in Pattaya and Bangkok than in Manila. When I was there in the Philippines last October 07, the night life was so boring. And guess what, I was surprise to find out that its also a bit expensive in Manila yet the bars were not so decently looking.

I would choose the Philippines over Phattaya any day. Your money goes further and the natives speak english and are very hospitable and friendly. Also your money goes further here and the beer is good
.
I would go to either Boracay or over to the Golden Fields in Bacolod. Plenty of beach and nightlife in Boaracay and Bacolod offers a hot springs resort and a casino along with cockfighting arenas.
