The Thai-Nordic Association (TNA) will bring a Finnish Christmas tradition to Bangkok on 20 November 2026 with a festive gathering for the Nordic community.

The event, called The Social: Pikkujoulu – A Nordic Little Xmas, will take place at The Globe Irish Pub & Sports Lounge near BTS Phra Khanong from 6 pm to 9 pm.

Pikkujoulu, meaning “Little Christmas” in Finnish, is a tradition of celebrating the festive season with friends and colleagues before Christmas itself.

TNA hopes to recreate that atmosphere in Bangkok by bringing together Nordic residents, friends and newcomers for an evening of social activities.
