Arts and Live Entertainment in Chiang Mai

One more thing to love about Chiang Mai is the wide variety of options for live entertainment. I recently attended a great evening of dance at the Woke Folks Festival. This four day festival is still happening now. Don’t miss it!

BOLT’s favorite spot for a night out is Corner Bistro. We frequently go for Trivia Night and Friday’s Fries and Hip Hop are very popular. We recently attended Nubian Speakin’s Show Me Sunday.

This event was a truly amazing evening of comedy, spoken word and song! The best thing is that this fabulous event happens twice a month!

There is also a wonderful jazz scene in Chiang Mai. The last king was a jazz aficionado and you can always find first class live jazz right here in the city. I especially like the sounds at North Gate.

If you prefer a more traditional type of entertainment you can experience Lanna style dance and music at a Khantoke Dinner at the Old Chiang Mai Cultural Center. There are also many venues where you can enjoy European classical music.

So, whether visiting or living in Chiang Mai be sure to check out the many opportunities for some great entertainment. Chiang Mai City Life magazine or Facebook are always full of up to the minute entertainment news. Go ahead and life that Chiang Mai life!
