Cicada Night Market are weekend markets located 4km south of the Hua Hin town centre. I personally think Cicada Night Market is the best night market to visit in Hua Hin. The main reason I put that at number 1 is because of the excellent street food available.

Cicada Night Market has a combination of stalls selling arts and crafts, hand made clothes, leather items, jewelry and other interesting items. Unlike other markets in Thailand, Cicada Market does not have all the fake brand name clothes and handbags. At these markets, the stalls are run by artist and people who design and make their own clothing.

There is a stall where you exchange your cash for coupons, then at the food stalls you hand over the coupons in exchange for food. I presume this makes it easier for the food stalls as you are given then the correct number of coupons and they don’t have to give you change.

There must be close to 100 stalls selling food. All sorts of different Thai food, Malaysian food, Singaporean food as well as some western food like pizza.

I enjoyed a few different dishes at the Cicada Night Market. First up I tried some meat on a stick! These grilled pork on a stick were 75 Baht for 5 sticks.

There is also 1 stall selling beer. 1 Singha beer will set you back 100 Thai baht! A bit expensive but you do need a beer with all the delicious spicy food.

There is also loads of entertainment at the Cicada Night Markets. Every night there are bands playing live music. There is usually a band busking right at the front of the market, and down the back of the market is a amphitheater with free music.
