Chiang Mai bachelor party

Mountains, fights and Nimman

Friday you land in the cool of the north, and the van takes you to your own pool villa in the hills.

That evening you're ringside at the Muay Thai, a cold beer in hand and the crowd on its feet.

Saturday morning you're flying through the jungle on a zipline. The afternoon is the pool.

Sunday is the big one in Nimman, with our host, the cars and your own spot at the club.

Plan it with Tanner, and he runs all three days.

How do you build the three days?

Pick one option for each day below, and the price for your group adds up as you go.

Day 1: a pool party at your villa, or ringside seats at the Muay Thai.

Day 2: the jungle ziplines, or a slow day by the pool.

Day 3: Nimman with our host, or one long dinner at the villa.

Fights and a pool party on the same day? Easy: the pool first, the fights at 9pm. Ask Tanner to lock in your three picks.

What does it cost for 12?

Here's the weekend for 12, day by day, for the whole group with VAT inside.

The priced parts are the DJ at ฿8,000, the open bar at ฿1,500 a person and the photographer at ฿10,000.

Your pool villa adds from ฿18,500 a day, and the cars are matched to your plan.

The Muay Thai, the ziplines and the Nimman party are quoted to your plan. Plan it with Tanner, and he sends one price for the lot.

Where should the group stay?

A pool villa on the edge of the city is the base: the pool, the barbecue and room for 12, with our van into Nimman.

Nimman puts the clubs and bars in walking distance, in hotels and serviced suites.

The Old City has the temples by day and Zoe in Yellow after dark.

Ask Tanner for a villa with room for all 12.

The days out

Flight of the Gibbon is a day in the treetops: ziplines, sky bridges and abseils, with hotel transfers and a Thai lunch included, as Headout lists it. Tanner books it with the rest of the weekend.

The fights are at Thapae Boxing Stadium, Monday to Saturday, with the first bout around 9pm. The Old City makes a slow afternoon of temples and markets before the party.

Ask Tanner to fit the day out around the fights.

Nimman after dark

Nimman is where Chiang Mai parties. The clubs are smaller than Bangkok's, but packed on a weekend.

Warm Up Cafe has been the Nimman club for almost two decades: a beer garden, live Thai bands early, then DJs in the room at the back, open 7pm to 3am.

NYX Nimman is deep red and low-lit, with live bands first and harder dance music later, until about 2:45am. Zoe in Yellow is the Old City courtyard of bars and two dance floors, chart hits outside and EDM inside, open from 5pm until after midnight; Tanner calls the club to check the night's closing time.

Warm Up is calm at 8pm and full by midnight, so get your table before 10.

The full night is in our Chiang Mai guide. Ask Tanner for your table at Warm Up on the big night.

How it works with Tanner

Four easy steps, from the first message to the van at the airport.

Flying in? See our Chiang Mai airport transfer, and ask Tanner to have the van waiting.

What we look after

The DJ, the bar, the photographer, the fight tickets and the host, as you pick them, all booked before you land.

The villa, the cars and the Nimman party are priced on their own, and flights are yours.

Want a chef or a bartender at the villa? See party staff. Ask Tanner what to add.

When is the best month?

November to February is the time: cool evenings and clear days.

Yi Peng is the big weekend, 23 to 25 November 2026, with sky lanterns only on 24 and 25 November and only in permitted areas outside town, as Chiang Mai's tourism office says. See Yi Peng and Loy Krathong.

See the Thailand party calendar for the festival dates. Ask Tanner to hold a villa for Yi Peng before they go.

Chiang Mai, Bangkok or Phuket?

Chiang Mai is the cooler, cheaper weekend: mountains, fights and Nimman.

Bangkok is the superclubs and the late finish.

Phuket is the yacht and the beach clubs.

Done Bangkok already? Chiang Mai is the change of pace. Planning a Chiang Mai stag party from the UK? Same weekend, same plan.

Ask Tanner which city suits your groom.

Ideas for the groom's weekend

The groom gets the full north: a fight night, a morning in the jungle, an afternoon by the pool and a big party in Nimman. Three days nobody forgets.

Our Chiang Mai bachelor party packages are built from those pieces, two options a day, with one price from Tanner.

Do the Muay Thai on the first evening, while everyone is fresh, and save Nimman for the last. That's Tanner's order, every time.

Ask Tanner which three fit your groom.
