About this event

The December edition of Black Moon Culture falls on Wednesday 9 December 2026, according to Phangan Info. The party is a new-moon psytrance night on Mac's Bay Beach in Ban Tai, on Koh Phangan, about 10 minutes from Thong Sala. It starts at 9 pm and goes on well after sunrise.

Expect psytrance, progressive psy, tribal electronic and Goa trance, usually at 140-150 BPM, from Thai and international resident DJs, with a guest act each month. The dance floor is an outdoor arena open to the beach, decorated with UV-reactive art, and fire performers work the crowd. The party says it has run since 1999. Gate entry is 700-1,000 THB (~20-29 USD). On event nights a songthaew leaves Thong Sala, and a rented bike also gets you to Ban Tai. Check the Black Moon Culture Facebook page before you travel, because the dates can change.

All times are Bangkok time (UTC+7).

We organize none of these events and sell no tickets. Plans change, so check the organizer's page before you go.

Parties on Koh Phangan

Koh Phangan is where Thailand's party reputation comes from. The Full Moon Party fills Haad Rin's Sunrise Beach once a month, with bars playing different music along the sand, fire shows and a start around 21:00. Dates sometimes move a day when the full moon falls on a Buddhist holy day, as with 27 October 2026. Smaller Half Moon and Jungle parties run in forest clearings inland from Ban Tai, and a weekly Friday jungle party runs there too. Haad Rin is reached from Thong Sala pier by shared taxi, tuk-tuk or minibus, and an entry ticket is sold at the beach alleys on the night.

Around Ban Tai

Ban Tai, or Baan Tai, is on Phangan's south coast, about a 10-minute drive south of Thong Sala according to one listing. It is the base for the island's forest parties: the Halfmoon Magic Forest is about ten minutes inland from the Ban Tai strip, and Jungle Experience and a weekly Friday jungle party also stage nights in the trees. On the beach, Ku Club is an open-air venue with resident performers. Wat Khao Tham, a hillside temple and meditation centre, overlooks the coast from above the village. Songthaew pick-ups serve the area.
