Welcome to the St David’s Society of Bangkok. Details of how to join our society can be found under the "Membership Form" page.
St. David’s Society is the society that represents Welsh people in Thailand, and it was established in 1976, and its first Bard was Mr. Eric G. Howell. Since 1976 the society has grown from strength to strength. The society’s membership requirements are flexible, and the current membership comprises of people resident in Thailand that either have direct links with Wales, who have studied or lived there or have Welsh ancestors or simply an interest in Wales.
Each year the committee is appointed at the AGM and a plan is drawn up comprising of a number of quality events which in the past have included a a Murder Mystery night, a Quiz night, a Wine Tasting evening, a Christmas dinner, the Intersociety’ s Golf event, a Poems & Pints evening as well as the flagship event being the St. David’s Society Annual Ball which is held in March every year and usually on the closest Saturday to St. David’s Day which of course is March 1st to commemorate the life of our Patron Saint, Saint David.
This year (2026) our focus will be on a St. David’s Day feast which will be held at the British Club on 1st March 2026, a Poems and Pints Evening, supporting the formation of a Welsh Male Voice Choir sponsored by our committee member Mike Williams, the annual St. David’s Xmas party as well as informal bi-monthly meetings of Welsh Speakers to be held at various restaurants and bars around Bangkok.
