The rest of December

Christmas sits between two bigger dates: Tomorrowland Thailand, sold out, from 11 to 13 December, and New Year’s Eve, when licensed venues may stay open until 06:00. The season’s dated nights are on club nights and parties, the countdown parties on New Year’s Eve parties. On Christmas Day itself the sports bars show the matches as usual: see pubs and sports bars.
