Wonderfruit — one of Southeast Asia’s most iconic music and art festivals — remains on hold. Despite growing interest in art, sustainability, and creative culture in Thailand, there is no official return planned for 2025.
Where Wonderfruit was held
The festival traditionally took place at The Fields at Siam Country Club in Chonburi province — about 1.5 hours from Pattaya, but never in Pattaya itself. This space became home to a unique blend of music, visual art, performance, and environmental initiatives.
Over the years, Wonderfruit established itself as one of the region’s leading cultural events, attracting visitors from across Thailand and the world.
Last event: 2019
The last successful festival was held in December 2019. Since then, events have been paused due to:
- the COVID-19 pandemic,
- economic instability,
- organizational and logistical challenges.
Since then, official sources — wonderfruit.co and social media channels — have not announced new dates or programs.
Unconfirmed rumors
Amid misinformation in media and travel groups, it’s important to clarify:
- No official return of Wonderfruit in 2025 has been announced.
- No confirmed appearances by Rudimental, Young Fathers, or Jonny Greenwood.
- No official announcements regarding partnerships with architecture studios (including PO-D Architects x Thor) or donations to the Rimba Raya Biodiversity Reserve.
Wonderfruit has never taken place in Pattaya — all events were held exclusively in Chonburi.
What’s happening now
It appears the festival team is in a period of internal planning — possibly developing a new concept, taking into account recent challenges and rising standards for sustainability and event safety.
However, no public statements or teasers have been released yet.
Alternatives in Thailand
While Wonderfruit remains on pause, Thailand continues to host other cultural and music events that uphold the spirit of creativity and innovation. These include:
- Bangkok Design Week — a festival of design and urban art;
- Singha Park Music Festival — large open-air concerts;
- Chiang Mai Creative City — art spaces and exhibitions in the northern capital;
- local open-air events in Bangkok, Phuket, and Samui.
Conclusion
There is no indication that Wonderfruit will return in 2025. The festival remains a cultural landmark, but its future is uncertain.
For those planning a trip and eager to experience Thailand’s art and music scene, it’s best to explore alternative events and follow official sources.
