The Standard, Bangkok Mahanakhon is once again serving unrelenting un-standard-ness with a festive lineup that goes from a cheeky Christmas market to the highest New Year’s Eve stage in Thailand, proving that Bangkok’s got the spirit and the altitude to party like nowhere else.
Santa, stop here— your gift game, covered

Upstairs at Double Standard, it’s all about the treats and sips—comfort food and festive cocktails for those who’ve worked up an appetite at the market.
