Versaka Bucha day, - prounounced many ways, but is the day thais celebtrate the Lord Buddahs birthday, so perhaps the most important religious day of the year here, certainly no alcohol supposed to be drunk, majority of bars closed, those open should only serve soft drinks, or face a huge fine, some markets will be open, but by and large the quietest day of the year in Thailand .... unless of course you want to join all the locals and go to a temple.

I think it falls on this Sunday, 26 May (it varies by year for some reason, maybe Lunar calendar differences).
It seems the best bet on any day when liquor and fun is banned is to check Patpong. I was never a big 'pong devotee, but they do seem to be open whenever one else is closed.
I hope that restaurants and some other things are still open. I was in Thailand on this date last year but really have no recollection what I did on that day.

Yep - checked buddhistfellowship.org and it is on May 26. I was worried because I arrive in BKK late on June 1.

I was at Annies on 25 May and asked the mamasan whether they will be closed the next day (Vesak Day : Sunday 26 May) and she told me that they will be open on that day.
(P.S. I hope the Police or the Thai FBI/KGV don't read this, otherwise Annies might get into trouble !!! Ý)

I am writing this from a place of Surawong, near Patpong, where I just had a beer. Don't know how much will be open, but some places are right now. It's a little early for the dancing places anyway. This is probably it for today.

was in patong on this day and while the bars were not banned from selling alcohol,they were strongly advised by the police not to.
most places stayed shut and those that opened served soft drinks only.
my friend had arrived from england and we wanted to watch the england/cameroon game and i took him to one of my regular bars for the game.
we discovered the supermarkets and 7-11's were selling alcohol,so we bought some bottles of spirits and bought coke in the bar and just mixed them.
later into the evening,the bar pulled the shutters down and served us beer.
this is always why i find it best to get friendly with all the girls i go with,sometimes there are advantages at some stage.
my regular girl from the bar was the 'unofficial' mamasan and she arranged many things for me during my stay.
