Visiting Bangkok: My Suggested 3-5 Day Itinerary for 2025
"Calypso Cabaret is a glitzy ladyboy cabaret show (founded in 1988) that I’d describe as Bangkok’s version of the Moulin Rouge — it’s a solid, entertaining spectacle and one of the best places in the city to see a cabaret performance; Playhouse Cabaret and Golden Dome Cabaret are also reputable alternatives." - Matthew Kepnes
The 22 Best Things to Do in Bangkok (Updated 2025)
"For a glitzy ladyboy cabaret experience (Bangkok’s Moulin Rouge), I recommend Calypso Cabaret: it’s a lively show with show tunes, dancing, K-pop numbers, and elaborate costumes, founded in 1988, with performances at 7:45pm and 9:30pm and tickets starting at about 800 THB." - Matthew Kepnes

I booked the tickets through an agency which I would not recommend. I had a lot of troubles getting in. Once approved and let in, the theatre is quite nice. The show overall was entertaining. All artists were having great costumes, good dance moves and a lot of make-up. Good experience for about one hour. Prices for tickets rather high.

Show was a nice amount of time, not crowded at all. Nicely cooled for the weather.
They provided opportunity to take photos after.
The music in the performances was also nice and catchy with good performers.
Nice way to spend some time out. Kid friendly as well.
The place was also close to a little strip mall so lots to do before and after.

Very entertaining! The costumes are so intricate and the girls are so beautiful. The performers are interactive so do expect some interaction if you are sitting in front. Some performers are not of the best quality so their flaws do stand out but overall kudos to them for showing up and performing. You get to take a pic w the performers (100 baht per lady) after the show. The free/welcome drink is just tea at the entrance. Everyone is friendly and welcoming. You can dress casually to this event but the glam from the ladies will make you feel so underdressed.

Book thought Klook for a package (cruise + show), but we arrived late due to the traffic jam. The lady in reception helps us to change the next cruise and the next show. The cruise finished at 2145 and the show start at 2145 which means we will be late for the show. The lady is so helpful and assist us for late entry. The show was wonderful and the stage is so close to the seat. The actors performed well and atmosphere is good, worth for a visit!
