KLUB25 Thonglor Ranks 97th in 'The World's 100 Best Clubs 2025,' Elevating Thai Nightlife to the Global Stage
19 May Khaosod

Thailand has only two entertainment venues that made it into 'The World's 100 Best Clubs 2025' ranking: ILLUZION in Phuket Province at number 64 and KLUB25 from the Thonglor 25 area in Bangkok at number 97. This reflects the international recognition of Thailand's nightlife industry across music, service quality, entertainment experience, and the growing night-time economy's role in boosting tourism and lifestyle sectors. Bangkok—marking another notable development in Thailand's nighttime entertainment industry. The World's 100 Best Clubs 2025 list, compiled by the International Nightlife Association, indicates that only two Thai entertainment venues made it into the world's top 100, with KLUB25 from Bangkok earning a spot at number 97 this year. This ranking transforms the Thonglor 25 club into one of Thailand's representatives on the international stage, standing alongside entertainment venues from major cities worldwide. It demonstrates that Bangkok is not only a tourism destination but also home to world-class nightlife entertainment. The World's 100 Best Clubs 2025 ranking is not based solely on popularity but combines public voting with expert industry panel assessments, where panel scores account for 50% of the total. The evaluation considers factors such as music and arts programming, safety measures, sound system quality, service standards, management, national and international recognition, and sustainability initiatives. From an industry perspective, having only two Thai venues in the world's top 100 and one of them from Bangkok is a positive signal for the capital's image as a music, entertainment, service, and nighttime culture destination with competitive potential on the global stage. This success aligns with the growing Night-time Economy trend embraced by major cities worldwide, which extends beyond just entertainment venues to encompass tourism, employment, live music, events, transportation, restaurants, and urban services. From Thonglor 25 to the world stage, this ranking milestone reinforces that Thailand's nightlife industry has potential to reach international standards if it maintains consistent quality in user experience, sound systems, management, safety, and service. KLUB25's appearance at number 97 globally is not just one business's success—it reflects that Bangkok hosts world-class entertainment venues capable of gaining international recognition and represents another significant boost to Thailand's diverse, modern, and contemporary tourism image.
