Bangkok Pride 2026: ICONSIAM Rainbow Drone Show on June 30
Bangkok Pride 2026 finale — free rainbow drone and fireworks show over the Chao Phraya at ICONSIAM, June 30 at 9.35pm.
Bangkok Pride 2026 is ending with a spectacular free show — and ICONSIAM has planned something the city has never seen before. On June 30, Thailand’s first-ever rainbow drone and fireworks display will light up the Chao Phraya River in a closing celebration of Pride Month.
The event is called “Journey of Pride Spectrum” and starts at 9.35pm. It runs for over five minutes above one of Bangkok’s most iconic river bends, with ICONSIAM’s riverside architecture as the backdrop.
Entry is completely free. No tickets required.
What Is Happening at ICONSIAM on June 30
ICONSIAM is hosting the Pride Month finale in partnership with Naruemit Pride — the organiser of Bangkok Pride Festival — under the campaign “UNITY OF PRIDE: DIVERSE SERIES, ONE COMMUNITY.”
The headline moment is the rainbow drone and fireworks display at 9.35pm. But the celebrations run throughout the entire day.
Rainbow-themed installations and light displays will be set up across the property from the morning. The full day schedule looks like this:
| Time | Event |
|---|---|
| All day | Rainbow installations across ICONSIAM property |
| All day | ICONIC Rainbow Lighting on building roofline |
| All day | Pride Rainbow Waterfall — 6th floor |
| 8.00pm | ICONIC Multimedia Water Features — rainbow theme |
| 9.35pm | Journey of Pride Spectrum — drone and fireworks show |
Four Free Viewing Spots Inside ICONSIAM
You do not need a reservation to watch the show. ICONSIAM has set up four main viewing areas across the building.
River Park — G Floor: The closest riverfront view. Watch the fireworks and water-feature show right from the edge of the Chao Phraya.
ICONSIAM Park — 2nd Floor: A higher vantage point with a wider view of the river and the sky show.
Napalai Terrace — 7th Floor: Rooftop-style panoramic view overlooking the Chao Phraya bend. Best spot for photos.
Riverside Restaurants — G to 6th Floor: Combine dinner with the show. Subject to individual restaurant seating arrangements — book in advance.
Why This Event Is Bigger Than Just a Show
The Bangkok Pride 2026 finale at ICONSIAM is not just entertainment. It is part of Thailand’s official campaign to win the bid to host WorldPride 2030 in Bangkok.
Siam Piwat — ICONSIAM’s parent company — has already signed an MoU linked to preparing bidding materials for WorldPride 2030. The June 30 event is being positioned globally as evidence that Bangkok can deliver world-class Pride experiences at scale.
If Bangkok wins the WorldPride 2030 bid, it would be the first Southeast Asian city to host the event — a landmark moment for LGBTQ+ tourism in the region.
What This Means for Travelers Visiting Bangkok
For anyone currently in Bangkok — whether traveling from Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Bangalore, or anywhere else — this is a free, unmissable event right on the Chao Phraya.
ICONSIAM is easily accessible by BTS Skytrain from Saphan Taksin Station via the free ICONSIAM Gold Line shuttle. It is also reachable by Chao Phraya Express Boat and by Grab or taxi from any part of Bangkok.
