The short answer
Alcazar Show Pattaya is a 70-minute ladyboy cabaret on Second Road, with four shows a night from 5pm.
What is the Alcazar show like?
The lights drop, the music kicks in, and the cast moves through 17 acts in about 70 minutes, from Thai classical dance to K-pop and Bollywood, with the whole company in the finale.
Sequins, feathers and a ladyboy cast the whole room laughs and cheers with. There's no dialogue, so language is never a problem.
It plays in a 1,200-seat theatre on Pattaya Second Road. After the finale, the performers line up outside for photos.
See our Pattaya guide, and ask Tanner to fit the show into your first night.
How much are Alcazar tickets?
The Alcazar Show Pattaya price depends on where you buy. Alcazar's own site lists its VVIP Experience at ฿1,800 a seat, with a snack and a drink, a meet and greet, photos with the cast and a souvenir, and only 24 of those seats are sold a show.

Alcazar or Tiffany's?
Both are big, glossy ladyboy cabarets on Pattaya Second Road, and both are family shows with no nudity. The difference is in the details.
Pick Tiffany's for the famous name and a special-occasion evening. Pick Alcazar for the lower price and the extra 5pm show.

What should you know before you go?
No photos or filming inside the theatre. Photos with the performers outside afterwards come with a tip, so bring cash.
Skip the beachwear, ripped jeans and very revealing clothes. Children under 2 aren't admitted, and under-18s come with an adult, Pelago's listing says.
Ask Tanner what to wear for the stop after the show.
Which seats, and which show
For a group, Tanner's pick is the 6:30pm show. You sit together, and dinner and Walking Street still fit after.
VVIP is only 24 seats a show, so for ten of you, book it early.
Book the late show and the evening runs straight on: the finale, the photos outside, then the van to the bars.
Ask Tanner which show fits your evening.
