Chiang Mai: Alcohol consumption is now allowed until 11pm in all restaurants that qualify as part of a relaxation of restrictions after the whole northern province was reclassified as a blue zone appropriate for tourism.
However, water fights in public areas will be banned and alcohol sales will be prohibited in venues where festivities are being held during the Songkran festival in the middle of this month.
The latest rules, announced by Chiang Mai governor Prachon Pratsakul as chairman of the Chiang Mai communicable disease committee, took effect yesterday.
According to the announcement, alcoholic drinks can now be served in restaurants that meet Safety and Health Administration (SHA) Plus and Covid-Free Setting standards until 11pm across the whole province.
