Talad Neon Night Market Bangkok
The new Talad Neon night market in Bangkok opened in December 2016 and is currently the talk of the town. However, this new attraction is not permanent and adds to the number of shopping and entertainment places in the city.
This trendy lifestyle night market only opens from Thursday to Sunday and from 4.00 PM to midnight. The good thing is that the night market in Bangkok is located in the main Pratunam district and caters to hipsters and younger travellers.

Talad Neon Night Market offers more lifestyle stalls, booths and containers that sell drinks, snacks, food, trinkets, homeware and trendy fashion. You can find many trending items here, and for food, you will encounter the best of Bangkok in terms of street food, fusion, and good old Thai food. Think of Art Box Singapore; it is generally the same kind of concept.

When it is fully operational, there are plans to have over 1,000 stalls here. Due to social media and wide media coverage, Talad Neon is gaining popularity quickly, especially among Southeast Asian youth. One reason is the location. Many travellers prefer to stay around the Pratunam area of Bangkok, and getting to the night market is just a 10-minute walk from Platinum Fashion Mall in Pratunam.
Apparently, Talad Neon is also part of the Platinum Fashion Mall group, so there is a special tuk-tuk shuttle service from the mall to the market and back from 7 to 9 PM. But you need to check if the service is still running. The name Talad Neon also means Downtown Night, hence the name. The place is well organized and clean, which is fantastic for tourists.

What Can You Find At Talad Neon Night Market
At one glance, it looks like a massive flea market, but it caters to the hipster lifestyle, which includes retro fashion, fusion food and drinks, chill-out areas, quick massages, and some obscure decorative items.
Beer is readily available, as are some festival-style foods. The night market is also open from 4:00 PM to midnight, offering another avenue to continue shopping while having some leisure time.
Live music performances are also lined up at selected areas where visitors can lay back with a cold beer, fusioned juice or the good old iced Thai tea. Bright neon lights cover the area, making it a festival and lifestyle area. No, this is not the Asian Coachella.
