Rhodes Bangkok 1st Anniversary Recap: Music, Drinks & Magic

It’s been wild. It’s been loud. And it’s been the kind of year that cements Rhodes as one of the best nightlife spots in Bangkok to dance, drink, and let loose. From its opening night until now, our bar has been shaking up the city with killer DJ line-ups, next-level cocktails, and a vibe that makes you forget you ever promised yourself an early night.

As we reflect on this incredible journey to our Rhodes Bangkok 1st Anniversary, it's clear that what started as a vision has grown into something truly special. We threw a Rhodes Birthday bash that was nothing short of legendary. If you missed it, you missed big. The Rhodes Bangkok 1st Anniversary celebration was the kind of weekend that proved why Rhodes’s status has fast gone from fresh newcomer to nightlife heavyweight in Bangkok.

The Rhodes Experience - Style Meets Substance

What makes Rhodes Bangkok stand out in Bangkok's buzzing nightlife scene? It's all about a perfect storm of style, sound, and social energy. Our Greek beach-inspired venue spans two distinct floors, each offering its own unique energy. Downstairs, you'll find an intimate space where you can watch our skilled bartenders craft liquid magic whilst our resident and guest DJs spin the freshest beats. Head upstairs, and you'll discover our VIP section - plush seating, table service, and an elevated party atmosphere.

Our brand resonates with a trendy, music-driven crowd who appreciate the finer things in life but aren't afraid to let loose. And, of course, the drinks. Anyone who’s been to Rhodes knows we have some of the best cocktails to try in Bangkok, served up with a cheeky twist that matches the venue’s playful spirit. Add to that the steady line-up of international and local DJs, and you’ve got a recipe for nights that just keep raising the bar.

So when it came time for the Rhodes Birthday, expectations were sky high. Spoiler: Rhodes didn’t just meet them - it smashed them.

The Anniversary Weekend – What Went Down

Energy, energy and more energy! The Rhodes birthday celebration spanned two unforgettable nights in July 2025, and the energy was off the charts.

• Friday, 18 July 2025: Rhodes kicked things off with a pre-event party starring y3llomusicofficial. His set was pure fire, giving fans the perfect “appetiser” before the main course. Think deep grooves, infectious beats, and a dancefloor that never stood still.
• Saturday, 19 July 2025: The main event, and the night everyone had circled in their calendars. Rhodes brought in none other than ACRAZE, one of the biggest names in global dance music, to headline. From the moment he dropped Do It To It, the crowd knew they were in for a night they’d be replaying in their heads for weeks.

Together, the two nights felt like a love letter to everyone who’s been part of the Rhodes journey so far.

Best Cocktails to Try During the Celebration

No Rhodes anniversary would be complete without highlighting the liquid artistry that's helped make us famous. As one of the best cocktail bars in Thonglor, our menu includes signature creations like the mysterious Evil Eyes - a stunning blue and white cocktail made with Neill blueberry gin, Bianco vermouth, and blue spirulina powder that's as Instagram-worthy as it is delicious.

For those seeking something uniquely Greek, the Rhodes Island cocktail combines sweet basil-infused gin with Greek yogurt-washed wild strawberry liqueur - a creative nod to our Mediterranean inspiration. And if you're feeling adventurous, I'm in Love with the Coco offers a tropical escape with its peanut butter rum base, pineapple, and toffee-coconut cream.

Of course, our classic cocktails with a Rhodes twist remain crowd favourites, from our perfectly balanced Tommy Margarita to the theatrical New York Sour with its striking red wine float.

A Birthday Bash to Beat

The Rhodes Bangkok 1st Anniversary celebration was a statement: Rhodes has arrived, and it’s here to stay. From the electric atmosphere to the crowd that showed up ready to celebrate, the weekend proved why this venue has become the beating heart of Bangkok’s nightlife.

And while the anniversary may be over, Rhodes is only getting warmed up. The Rhodes Birthday reminded everyone that this isn’t just about one big night - it’s about building a nightlife culture that thrives on connection, creativity, and plenty of cheeky cocktails along the way.

Looking Ahead

One year down, countless more to go. Rhodes has set the tone with an anniversary celebration that will be hard to top - but if the past year has shown us anything, it’s that this bar knows exactly how to keep raising the stakes.

If you haven’t experienced it yet, now’s the time. Rhodes has carved its place as one of the best cocktail bars in Bangkok for those who want more than just a night out. It’s bold, it’s stylish, and where every sip and every beat is designed to keep you coming back for more.

So, here’s to the music, the memories, and the madness of the first year. And here’s to the promise of even bigger nights ahead. Because when Rhodes throws a party, Bangkok shows up, and the city never forgets.
