The list of Asia’s 50 Best Bars 2022 was announced at an in-person awards ceremony tonight in Bangkok, Thailand.
The ceremony, which was held in front of a live audience of 500 guests for the first time since 2019, revealed the highly anticipated countdown that features bars from 16 cities across Asia, culminating in Coa, Hong Kong, being named as The Best Bar in Asia, sponsored by Perrier.
The awards ceremony was also streamed live on The World’s 50 Best Bars Facebook and 50 Best Bars TV YouTube Channel for those unable to make it to Thailand. It is available to view on both of these channels.
The seventh edition of the annual awards was a chance for Asia’s bar community to come together after a hiatus in live events, as the region emerges from the pandemic's many challenges and international travel resumes once more.
