Rumours are all there are at the moment. We will advise when a directive is issued.

Stock up your alcoholic drinks as long as prices are not up.

The two official public holidays are the 13th (the anniversary of the king's passing) and 26th (Cremation Day), but as already said, no official announcement as yet. Whether an official ban or not, I guess a lot of 'Thai venues' will close out of respect.

Was informed by a bar in Soi 94 that they will be closed this Thursday and also from the 25th to the 29th Oct. Didn't ask if they have been instructed or not but just that they will be shut

^ Yes to confirm, today (October 5) is the end of Buddhist Lent and therefore officially a dry day. Pete :cheers:

I can drink tonic water quite happily, but alas all bars closed, even for non-alcoholic drinks.
I think that the no-alcohol is not the main point--its that places of fun have to close.

They were closed yesterday which is the official end of the Lent, I think today is normal day.

Do you have an official source for that information please? We would like to quote it - there are too many unsubstantiated rumours flying around.

For me informations coming from bar owners are reliable, because they got it from those you call officials.

The police don't know and neither does the mayor. Nothing official as yet.
