Take a Stance

Celebrate selfhood not with a whisper but a month-long playlist of curated happenings that twist tradition into something far queerer. W Bangkok isn’t just hosting Pride – it’s composing a symphony of sass, spirit and subversion. Between June 7-30, expect a culinary pas de deux by Chef Ploy and Chef Joe at Paii restaurant, where Thai classics get reimagined with a modern wink. If exclusivity’s your poison, Marriott Bonvoy Moments on June 7 delivers a mix of workshop, light lunch and private dinner that feels less hotel and more hush-hush supper club. Later that night, the W Lounge goes rogue with Pour for Pride – one guest mixologist, unlimited flamboyance and cocktails served with a wink. June 14, Thai artist Atom Prakorn turns therapy into art – literally – with a creative workshop aimed at untangling minds and loosening hearts. Then, on June 28, it’s time to lace up (or slip on something impractical) for the Pride Fun Run – a vertical jog that’s equal parts cardio and catwalk. Check W Bangkok for more details. Jun 7-30. W Bangkok.
