Koh Phangan : Full Moon Party : Venue/Clubs
|
|
The Rock
The Rock is one of the best places on the beach to chill out and get view of the whole party. It is situated at the southern end of Haad Rin on (you guessed it)
a big rock. Expect soulful funky tunes mixed by DJ Kim and the best cocktails on the beach.
|
Paradise Bungalows
The home of the Original Full Moon Party, Paradise is still the biggest and best venue consistently putting on the largest show. If a big name is visiting the island, you will normally
find them here playing alongside the amazing resident DJ A who has more or less coined the tough progressive sound of Haad Rin. |
Drop In Club
Drop In is another long runner that has been playing a more commercial set to the huge crowd that gathers there. It has loads of different places to chill out and
watch the action; playing chart, RnB, hip hop and dancefloor classics.
Zoom Bar
Zoom Bar is another psy-trance venue, slightly smaller than Vinyl and a bit more intimate, but banging all the same. From sunset to sunrise the dancefloor is a blur of sand, fluoro paint and
limbs and it often goes on all day after the party as well.
Vinyl Club
DJ Dam at the Vinyl Club bangs out full psy-trance and driving techno to one of the biggest crowds on the beach. It has a monster sound system, loads of podiums to shake yer booty on and more
than its fair share of hardcore space cadets.

|
The Cactus
The Cactus is one of the frist places you come to as you enter Haad Rin Beach, Its right in the middle so it gets a load of punters, especially as the sun
comes up. Expect a more commercial sound with RnB, hip hop, old skool classics and even the odd bit of rock. |
|
Tommy Bar
Tommy’s really does deliver the ultimate Full Moon experience. Big sound system, fire wall, whacky fluorescents, club lighting and it’s own security purely for your safety. Locals DJ Ton and DJ Max play all your party faves between 9pm and 3am and then top International DJs Graham Gold (UK, Kiss 100) and Darragh Casey (Eire) bust out the latest Big Room and Tech House till 8am. Exclusively on January 8th the Irish legend FERGIE (ex Radio 1 UK) will be playing.
|
Mellow Moutain
If you want to get away from the mayhem, but still want to keep an eye on the action Mellow Moutain is located at the quieter northern end of the beach. There are heaps of cushions and
hammoks to chill out on, great milkshakes and soothing tunes to calm you down after a hard session dancing on the beach. |
Reggae House
Away from the main strip, tucked away just off Sunset Beach, you’ll find Reggae House. Reggae House has something for everyone......dub, reggae and ska music, cocktails, chillout hammocks, beanbag balcony and pool cave.
|
Same-Same
Warm up the evening with some live music at Same-Same Lodge; the band play covers from Rock to Pop on a pro sound system to keep the crowds coming back for more.
|
Sunrise Beach Club
Live DJs start playing 5 days before Full Moon, serving up Funky and Electro House, which alternates with a D&B, Jungle theme by the Orchid Club, Living Tribe DJ team.
|
 |
Outback Bar
If you want to escape the pandemonium and hear some deep and funky house, head to the Outback near the main pier with its no trance music policy. Check out the stunning decor, a brilliantly stocked
bar and an excellent menu make this a popular choice. |
 |
Warm Up Bar
Mixing an impressive selection of progressive house, the Warm Up Bar provides a good pre-dance venue in the heart of Haad Rin to down a few drinks and meet up with friends before proceeding to
main event. |
Backyard Club
The ultimate after party that starts up at 11am just as Haad Rin beach shuts down. Some say it is the best part of the FMP with only dedicated mooners mashing it up on the dance floor and the best of the previous nights DJs on the desks; including the infallible residents DJ A and DJ Boyonic. |
Club 9
Club 9 is a refreshing alternative to the beach venues, inviting internationally known DJs and live acts to perform every month during the FMP. |
