About this event

Cabanas Koh Samui Beach Club, on Chaweng Beach Road, held a New Year's Eve seafood buffet and beach party that started at 7 pm on 31 December 2025 and ran until 1 am on 1 January 2026. Bangkok DJ Penny headlined. The Megatix listing titled it a beachfront countdown to 2026.

The six-hour window made it a dinner-and-countdown evening rather than an all-night party, with a seafood buffet as part of the programme. It was one of several New Year's Eve options on Chaweng, alongside the large beach club night at Club Seen and the resort galas on the same beach. The event was ticketed through Megatix. The same night, Chaweng also had a large party at Club Seen and several resort galas, so the beach area was busy.

Live music on Koh Samui

Live music on Samui is spread across the evening bar strips rather than one venue. Chaweng Beach Road has bars with house bands playing rock, reggae and pop covers, plus a small jazz club. Lamai leans towards reggae and rock bands, and Bophut's Fisherman's Village suits a quieter drink with a singer or duo. Larger club nights bring in visiting international performers, usually announced a few weeks ahead on the club's own channels. Resorts also host jazz and beach concerts now and then. Most nights start late, so expect the main acts after 22:00.

Around Chaweng

Chaweng is the main resort town on Samui's east coast, with the longest beach on the island, roughly 7 km of sand. Soi Green Mango, just back from the beach, is the nightlife alley, and Central Festival Samui sits between the beach road and Chaweng Lake. Chaweng Beach Road is one-way northbound and slows to a crawl between 17:00 and 20:00 with taxis, scooters and pedestrians. Most club nights, pool parties and Muay Thai bouts are here, and Pru Chaweng Park hosts public festivals and races.
