About

Galaxy Cabaret is one of the longer-running a-go-go bars on Walking Street, South Pattaya’s neon nightlife strip, set near the Pier nightclub in the middle of the action. Despite the name it’s not a ladyboy cabaret show — it’s an adults-only go-go bar, and its distinguishing feature is that many of its dancers are Eastern European (Russia, Ukraine, Moldova) rather than Thai, performing stage and pole shows through the night.

What to expect

An experience venue rather than a bargain: there’s generally no charge just to walk in and watch, but drinks sit at the higher end for Pattaya (imported beer around 200-plus baht), tips for dancers are expected, and there can be a charge if you bring a female guest. It’s often fronted by a dancer visible through a window to draw passers-by, and it fills up late. Go in understanding the model and it’s a straightforward Walking Street stop.

Good to know

This is firmly night-time, over-20s territory — not a family or early-evening spot. Standard Walking Street sense applies: agree drink prices up front, keep your tab visible and check the bill against the menu before paying, expect some upselling, and don’t count on being able to take photos inside. Handled that way, you’ll enjoy the show without surprises.

What the historical listings establish

SoiDB records the Thai name กาแล็กซี่ คาบาเร่ย์, classifies the venue as a go-go bar and places it inside the Absolute Entertainment complex on Walking Street. Its record was created and last updated on 1 August 2010 and publishes no hours or telephone number. Thailand Night Guide independently identifies a second-floor Galaxy Cabaret in the Walking Street area, but likewise supplies no schedule or contact. Those records establish the historic identity and upstairs setting, not current prices or operation.

Detailed facts, cautions, facilities & reviews

Full overview

Galaxy Cabaret is one of the longer-running a-go-go bars on Walking Street, the neon nightlife strip in South Pattaya, sitting in the thick of it near the Pier nightclub. Despite the 'cabaret' name it isn't a transvestite revue like Tiffany's or Alcazar — it's an adults-only go-go bar, and its calling card is that many of its dancers are from Eastern Europe (Russia, Ukraine and Moldova) rather than the Thai dancers of most Walking Street venues, performing stage and pole shows through the night. That points of difference has made it a well-known, searched-by-name stop on the strip for years, often with a dancer visible through a window to pull passers-by in. It's an experience venue rather than a value one: drink prices sit at the higher end for Pattaya (imported beers around 200-plus baht), tips for dancers are expected, and there can be a charge if you bring a female guest — so it pays to go in knowing the model. There's generally no door charge simply to walk in and watch. Like everywhere on Walking Street, it's firmly night-time, over-20s territory that gets going late; check your bill against the menu, keep track of your tab, and treat any quoted prices as approximate, as they shift with season and management.

No — despite the name, it isn't a transvestite cabaret like Tiffany's or Alcazar. It's an adults-only a-go-go bar with stage and pole dancing, notable for featuring Eastern European (Russian, Ukrainian and Moldovan) dancers rather than the Thai dancers of most Walking Street bars.

Is there an entry fee, and what do drinks cost?

There's generally no door charge just to walk in and watch, but drinks are pricey for Pattaya — imported beers run around 200-plus baht — tips for dancers are expected, and there can be a charge if you bring a female guest. Prices change, so check the drinks menu when you sit down.

What are Galaxy Cabaret's opening hours?

It's a late-night venue, generally opening in the evening (around 8pm) and running until roughly 2–3am, busiest well after midnight. Walking Street hours flex with the season and local rules, so treat them as a guide and confirm on the night.

Any tips before going in?

Know the model before you sit down: agree drink prices (including any you buy for staff), keep your tab visible and check the bill against the menu before paying, and expect some upselling. Photography inside go-go bars is usually not allowed, and cash is easiest. These are standard Walking Street habits.
