Thailand will hold general elections on Sunday 14 May, with smaller-scale advance voting taking place on Sunday 7 May.
But if you’ve planned a boozy bash on either of these days, be warned, as under Section 147 of Thailand’s election law the sale of alcohol will be banned.
From 6pm on Saturday 6 May until 6pm on Sunday 7 May, and also from 6pm on Saturday 13 May until Saturday 14 May, it will be illegal to sell alcohol.
This ban applies to convenience stores, bars, restaurants and other public and private entertainment venues.
