If Coachella and Burning Man had a tropical baby raised on Thai creativity, amazing food, and sustainability… It would be Wonderfruit.
Held every December in The Fields of Siam Country Club in Pattaya, Wonderfruit is not just a music festival — it’s a 4-day celebration of culture, art, food, nature, and community. Think of it as an eco-friendly wonderland where you can dance, meditate, explore, chow down, and rediscover joy.
Whether you're a festival lover or a curious first-timer, here’s why Wonderfruit 2025 deserves a spot on your travel bucket list.
