Meliá Chiang Mai is set to light up the city’s skyline with a spectacular celebration this Pride Month, as MAI The Sky Bar—the highest bar in Chiang Mai—reopens on June 28 with “Glow Up! A Black Ruby Pride Party”. The vibrant evening will honour Thailand’s historic legalisation of same-sex marriage and the broader message of celebrating love in all colours.

Located on the 22nd floor of the hotel, the rooftop bar offers panoramic views from the Ping River to the majestic Doi Suthep Temple, with its glass bridge and multi-level terraces offering one of the city’s most breathtaking spots to party under the stars.

The Pride-themed celebration promises:

• A fabulous drag queen show by Chiang Mai’s BLOW Entertainment
  

• Live music from resident DJs
  

• A best costume contest, with the winner earning a complimentary stay at Meliá Chiang Mai
  

• A signature “Black Ruby” cocktail included in the THB 500 entry fee
  

Guests are encouraged to dress in their loudest and proudest outfits, adding to the sparkle of the night. The first seven table bookings will also receive a free cocktail basket, making it a truly exclusive experience.

Drawing on Meliá’s Spanish roots, MAI The Sky Bar will serve up a curated menu of tapas, pinchos, and gourmet desserts, all made using 100% real ingredients with a strong focus on local, sustainable, and organic farming. Highlights include:

• Croquetas and mixed grill skewers
  

• Fresh summer rolls with tamarind dip
  

• Salmon tiradito with mango passion fruit dressing and avocado mousse
  

• Chocolate mud cake and tiramisu jars
  

To pair with the culinary delights, the bar offers an extensive selection of spirits, wines, mocktails, teas, coffees, and fresh juices.

This Pride celebration is more than just a party—it’s a toast to love, freedom, and visibility in a setting as elevated as the occasion itself.
