Passenger at Bangkok's Thunder Dome: start time, tickets, potential setlist and everything you need to know
Many will recognise 'Let Her Go' – a track that leans on simple yet striking images like light, sun and home to capture the emptiness that lingers when something essential disappears after love fades. It started, as these things often do, by accident. I was at a game cafe in 2012 – one of those dim, blinking places where time collapses and teenagers subsist entirely on instant noodles and borrowed Wi-Fi – when 'Let Her Go' floated through my headphones, uninvited. I wasn't looking for poetry. I was probably mid-click, halfway through some medieval siege. But then came the line: ' Only know you love her when you let her go.' It landed with the quiet cruelty of something far too true for a Tuesday afternoon. It's 2025, and Michael David Rosenberg – though most will know him as Passenger – a British folk singer with the kind of weathered sincerity that tends to sneak up on you – is finally playing a show in Thailand. A little late, perhaps, considering his biggest song has been echoing through bedrooms, cafes and breakup playlists for well over a decade. Still, there's something fitting about it. His music has always been less about arrival and more about the long road getting there. By the time 'Let Her Go' became a global phenomenon, topping charts across continents and amassing billions of views, the moment had already passed. The track had quietly entered the bloodstream of a generation not especially prone to feeling things out loud. If 'Let Her Go' ever held a place in your personal soundtrack, this might be the moment to hear it in real time. Before the lights dim and the first chord lands, here's everything you need to know. When is Passenger playing at Bangkok's Thunder Dome? Passenger is playing in Bangkok on Friday, November 28. What are the timings? The venue doors will open at 7pm. The show is expected to begin at approximately 8pm and finish around 10.30pm What's the setlist? The official setlist for Passenger's 2025 Asia tour hasn't been released yet. However, judging by previous tours and common setlist formats, it's likely to feature a blend of fan favorites such as 'Let Her Go' and 'Things That Stop You Dreaming,' along with tracks from his most recent album. Who is supporting? There's no supporting act, it will be his solo show in Bangkok. Where else is Passenger playing in Asia? Based on current information, he is scheduled to perform in three additional locations: Wednesday November 26 Singapore at Capitol Theatre Sunday November 30 Shanghai at 蜚声PHASELIVEHOUSE Wednesday December 3 Beijing at 福浪LIVEHOUSE-福 Can you still get tickets for Passenger at Bangkok's Thunder Dome? Definitely! Tickets can still be snugged online through Thaiticket Major right here. How much do the tickets cost? Ticket prices begin at B1,500 and go up to B4,500, depending on the seating and package selected. Here's the seating plan
