What’s in the Guide

Our Signature pulls together the best around the weekend of The Weeknd: where to stay and how each neighbourhood feels, the food worth crossing the city for, the bars we would drink through in order, the clubs that go until morning and the quieter rooms for when you want to hear each other again. There are some curated experiences, events, and easter eggs in there too.

Three Nights at Rajamangala

The Weeknd plays Bangkok on 11, 12 and 13 October, at Rajamangala National Stadium, with thousands of people and a banger opener by Creepy Nuts. After Hours til Dawn began in Philadelphia in 2022 and has carried three albums around the world since. Bangkok is one of its final stops, which makes these three nights the last of their kind.

Story Behind This Tour

In September 2022, two months into this tour, he walked out at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles and his voice cracked as he said hello. Three songs later it was gone. He had sung through a fever, through a breakup, through a death in the family, and it had never once failed him. The doctors found nothing, which told him it was never his throat. He scrapped the album he was halfway through, wrote Hurry Up Tomorrow instead, made a film about that night, and said he was done being The Weeknd. Three years later he came back to the same stadium for four nights and told the crowd he had returned with a vengeance, and that it was because of them. This October, he brings the last leg of it to Bangkok.
