BREAK FREE AT BAR.YARD: A TRIBUTE TO FREDDIE MERCURY
When the final credits roll, the celebration rises to the rooftop at Kimpton Maa-Lai Bangkok with Break Free at Bar.Yard, a sky-high tribute to Freddie Mercury and a night dedicated to music, freedom and unapologetic self-expression.
From 7:00 p.m., guests can experience an exclusive guest shift by Taipei’s acclaimed To Infinity and Beyond, led by award-winning bartender Mars Chang, bringing boundary-pushing cocktails crafted with artistry and innovation.
From 9:00 p.m. onwards, the energy turns all the way up as live rock sets from Big Joe & Voodoo Boys, karaoke sessions led by VIBE Soundsystem and a late-night DJ set by DJ Pegg transform the rooftop into a full-volume celebration of Pride.
Expect iconic anthems, singalong moments and the kind of electric atmosphere where strangers become friends and everyone is invited to channel their inner Freddie.
