Wonderfruit festival

Five days in December

Wonderfruit's 11th edition runs from Thursday 3 to Monday 7 December 2026, at The Fields at Siam Country Club near Pattaya, the festival's own site says.

TAT has backed the festival for nine years in a row, and 2025 was its 10th anniversary, TAT says.

Saturday is Father's Day and Monday is a holiday too, so the weekend is the big one. Plan it with Tanner, and the whole festival week is covered.

Getting to the fields

The Fields are in Pong, Bang Lamung. Wonderfruit's own hotel list puts them 16 km from Mövenpick Siam Na Jomtien, 22 km from Centre Point Prime in Pattaya and 27 km from the Royal Cliff. Mövenpick and Centre Point Prime are official shuttle stops, and the Royal Cliff runs its own free shuttle at 3pm and 6pm.

The easy way is your own car from the villa each day, waiting at the gate when you're done. A luxury van for up to 4 is from ฿6,500 for 10 hours, and bigger groups ride together in a party van.

Coming from Bangkok first? See Bangkok to Pattaya, then ask Tanner to have the car at the gate each night.

What the passes cost

These are Wonderfruit's own 2026 prices, from its ticket page. Prices rise with each sale round. The November sale, 3 to 9 November from 4pm Bangkok time, is the last one online; after that, any passes left are sold at the door.

Children 12 and under go free with a parent, with no ticket needed. Under-20s wear a Teen wristband and can't buy alcohol. Ask Tanner to put the passes on the plan before the November round closes.

What to book first

Tomorrowland lands near Pattaya the weekend after, so the best villas go first.

The price steps up with each sale round, and the November sale is the last one online. Hold one villa now and it covers both festivals, then book your own car for the daily run, which beats waiting for a shuttle.

Ask Tanner to hold the villa and the cars today.

What it's like to be there

Picture five days and nights in open fields: music moving through the landscape, the art lighting up after dark and something on around the clock.

The 11th edition's theme is Field Village. The names on Wonderfruit's own programme include Tangerine Dream, Nubya Garcia, Gerd Janson, DJ Python and the Paradise Bangkok Molam International Band.

By day it slows right down: yoga and mobility, forest therapy and deep dance meditation, then Stories to Eat's chef's tables and communal meals. Ask Tanner which days suit your crew.

Is Wonderfruit like Burning Man?

A little. Think a smaller, greener Burning Man, on fields that have been rewilded since day one. The difference: you sleep in a pool villa half an hour away, not a tent.

Expect big art installations and shared feasts. Single-use plastic bottles and cups are banned, water refills are free, and it's cashless, so you top up a wristband inside. Outside food, soft drinks and alcohol stay at security, the festival's FAQ says.

Ask Tanner to set the villa up for the slow mornings after.

Your own villa for the week

A Pattaya pool villa is about half an hour from The Fields: your own pool in the morning, the car to the festival in the afternoon, and the same house for Tomorrowland the weekend after.

Pattaya pool villas start from ฿12,500 a day: see Pattaya villas. Wonderfruit also runs general and boutique camping on site, and its partner hotels include Mövenpick Siam Na Jomtien and the Royal Cliff Beach Hotel.

For a group, take the villa. That's Tanner's pick.

Doing both festivals? Ask Tanner to keep it on one plan, and read our Tomorrowland Thailand guide for the weekend after.

Which pass to get

For a party trip, the weekend pass is the sweet spot: Saturday 5 to Monday 7 December, three days and two nights, with villa days before it.

• Five-day pass: for the music lovers who want all of it.
• Sunday pass: one big day out, from 8am Sunday through to sunrise on Monday.
• Families: children 12 and under go free with a parent.

Ask Tanner which pass fits your group.

What to bring

Bring a refillable bottle, a battery pack and your passport, since ID can be checked at any time. Water refills are free, there's no wifi, and the phone signal is patchy but often works, Wonderfruit's FAQ says.

Eat inside, where Stories to Eat runs cooking workshops and chef's tables. Top up the wristband (there are ATMs on site; card top-ups can't be refunded), and save the driver's number before you go in. Insider tip: last entry is midnight and the gates stay shut until 8am, so the car never waits outside a locked gate.

Ask Tanner to confirm the car the evening before.

After Wonderfruit

Stay on in Pattaya. Tomorrowland Thailand runs 11 to 13 December at Wisdom Valley, about 15 minutes from The Fields.

Fill the days between with a boat day to Koh Larn, a slow day by the pool, and one big night on Walking Street, which closes to cars in the evening.

For the clubs and the late bars, see Pattaya nightlife.

See Pattaya yachts for the boat, Tomorrowland Thailand for the weekend after, and festival trips in Thailand for more.

The villa stays the same; only the festival changes.

Ask Tanner to keep the villa for both.
