To help you decide where to go, this guide rounds up 18 popular countdown spots in Bangkok for 2027, with options suited to both locals and travellers looking to experience the city's festive atmosphere.

Shopping Malls in Bangkok for Countdown Celebrations

1. Siam Paragon

Siam Paragon is a central Bangkok countdown spot with live concerts at Parc Paragon. For New Year 2027, the official artist lineup, event hours, and fireworks program have not yet been announced. The latest official Siam Paragon page still covers the 2026 celebration, so visitors should check the mall’s official channels closer to 31 December 2026 for confirmed event details.

 

2. Central World Bangkok

CentralWorld is one of Bangkok’s main city-centre countdown venues, known for its outdoor concert and midnight fireworks. As of 2 October 2026, Central Pattana has not yet published the official 2027 schedule or artist lineup. The 2026 event opened at 5 pm and included cityscape fireworks and a drone show, but the 2027 event hours are still unconfirmed for visitors.

 

3. IconSiam

ICONSIAM is a major riverside spot for watching New Year fireworks over the Chao Phraya River. A current tourism listing places the 2027 countdown on 31 December 2026, but says full event details are coming soon.

Riverside Spots for Countdown and Fireworks in Bangkok

1. Asiatique The Riverfront

Asiatique The Riverfront is one of Bangkok’s popular riverside places to welcome New Year and watch fireworks over the Chao Phraya River. For the 2027 countdown, full official event details have not yet been released. Visitors can still expect a busy festive atmosphere around the riverfront, with restaurants, attractions and cruise departures nearby. Previous countdowns featured concerts, stage shows and fireworks, so check Asiatique’s official channels closer to 31 December 2026 for confirmed schedules.

 

2. Taksin Pier

Taksin Pier, also known as Sathorn Pier, is better used as a riverside access point than as an official countdown venue. Located beside BTS Saphan Taksin, it connects travellers with Chao Phraya boats and services heading toward major riverside celebration areas. On New Year’s Eve, the area can become crowded as visitors travel to cruises and waterfront destinations. For 2027, no official fireworks event at the pier itself has been announced, so plan mainly for transport and river access.

 

3. Viva & Aviv The River

Viva & Aviv The River offers a riverside dining setting at River City Bangkok, with open-air seating and views across the Chao Phraya River. Its previous New Year’s Eve celebration included a special dinner and riverside fireworks atmosphere, but a 2027 countdown package has not yet been officially announced. It is a good option for travellers who prefer dinner, drinks and river views in one place. Check the venue’s official channels for 31 December 2026 reservations and confirmed event details.
