Afro House with a melodic undertow rather than a rush, ALIK builds sets that take their time. Grooves circle patiently, warmth settles in and before you realise it the floor feels held rather than hyped. It suits Bar.Yard, which has quietly shed its old skin. The rooftop now leans into Bangkok’s heat, reimagined by Chapman Taylor with a confidence that feels earned. Thai pride sits front and centre, anchored by the numeral 40, a wink to both altitude and atmosphere. Colour works hard here. Patterns show up on staff uniforms, while symbols like the hornbill, bird of paradise, serpent and sun drift across the space. Nothing screams for attention, yet everything lands.
February 5. Free. Reserved via 02-056-9999. Bar.Yard, 9pm onwards
