Wonderfruit Thailand 2026: Dates, Tickets & Where to Stay
On this page
Wonderfruit is Thailand’s big December arts and music gathering: five days of live music, art installations, wellness sessions, talks and shared feasts at The Fields at Siam Country Club, inland from Pattaya in Chonburi. It launched in December 2014, is produced by the Thai company Scratch First, and draws around 25,000 people. The 2026 edition, the 11th, runs 3–7 December 2026, a week earlier than its usual mid-December slot.
Quick answer: should you book now? If you are going, buy in the earliest sale round still open: prices step up each round. Ticket prices rise in rounds, and a 5-Day Full Pass left at the door is 20,000 THB, so check the official site for the round that is open now. Tickets are sold only on the official Wonderfruit site, not through Klook or Viator. Then book a bed in Na Jomtien or Pattaya (see hotels we like), because the next weekend brings Tomorrowland Thailand to the same area. Full price list below.
- Dates: 3–7 December 2026 (Thursday to Monday)
- Venue: The Fields at Siam Country Club, Siam Country Soi 5, Pong, Bang Lamung, Chonburi
- Tickets: sold in rounds that get dearer; a 5-Day Full Pass left at the door is 20,000 THB. Sunday Pass 5,000 THB
- Where to buy: wonderfruit.co, checking out on Ticketmelon. All sales are final
- Kids: 12 and under free with a parent or guardian
- Getting there: About 16 km from Na Jomtien and 22–27 km from central Pattaya; shuttle details for 2026 are still to come

Book the room early, not just the pass. The site is 16 km from Na Jomtien and 22–27 km from central Pattaya, and rooms along the coast fill up with Tomorrowland the next weekend. These open on 3–6 December: Mövenpick Siam Na Jomtien Pattaya and Centre Point Prime Hotel Pattaya are 2026 partner hotels and shuttle stops, and U Jomtien Pattaya is the mid-range pick.

What Happens at Wonderfruit
Wonderfruit is not a line-up festival in the usual sense. The organisers describe it as 99-plus hours of music, art, food, wellness and nature, and since 2024 the programme has been built around three themes: Mind, Nature and Sound. There is always something on somewhere, day or night, across a spread of named venues rather than one main stage.
Venues announced for 2026 include The Quarry (electronic music with light and visuals), Molam World (Isan molam bands plus artists from neighbouring countries), Wonderness (the wellness area, moved back to the centre of the site this year), Baan Bardo, the Creature Stage amphitheatre, the Forest Stage and the Solar Village. A new Field Village gathers talks, workshops, food and music in one communal area, and a cinema-and-sound strand pairs Nick Dwyer’s music documentaries with live sets over three evenings. Check the Guide to Wonder for the latest venue and artist releases.
Past editions have booked Four Tet, Floating Points, Richie Hawtin, De La Soul, Little Dragon and Nightmares on Wax, alongside Thai acts such as Paradise Bangkok Molam International Band; the 2024 bill also leaned heavily on Japanese DJs and producers. The 2026 music line-up is still being released.
Food is a big part of the draw: feasts and shared meals run through the programme, and some dining, wellness and workshop experiences (called “Journeys”) can be pre-booked on the official site. The sustainability rules are enforced, not decorative: no single-use plastic, free water refills, and a reusable Wonder Cup (690 THB pre-order) if you forget your own. Wonderfruit’s 2019 edition won the Greener Creative Award at the A Greener Festival Awards.
Insider Tip: The installations and smaller venues away from the music are at their best after dark, when the lit pieces switch on and the crowds are at the stages. Plan at least one evening wandering rather than chasing sets.
Wonderfruit 2026 Tickets and Prices
Wonderfruit sells in short, timed sale windows rather than continuously. The September sale (1–7 September) sold out. Between windows you can only join the waitlist. Prices below are the official 2026 list, before the VAT and fees that Ticketmelon adds at checkout.
| Pass | October sale (1–7 Oct) | November sale (3–9 Nov) | At the door |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5-Day Full Pass (Thu–Mon, 20+) | 11,900 THB | 12,900 THB | 20,000 THB |
| Weekend Pass (from 8am Sat 5 Dec) | 10,500 THB | 11,500 THB | 15,000 THB |
Three fixed-price passes sit outside the sale rounds: the Sunday Pass (5,000 THB in advance, 6,500 THB at the door) covers Sunday from 8am through Monday sunrise, the Teen Pass (ages 13–19, all five days) is 4,500 THB in advance or 5,000 THB at the door, and a Dog Pass is 1,000 THB (1,500 THB at the door) for one dog of any size.
Two discounted passes need an application: the Youth Pass (3,900 THB, ages 20–24, full five days) and the Intro Pass (4,500 THB, first-timers aged 20+, one 24-hour entry from Thursday to Sunday). The Family Pass takes 5% off every paid ticket for 1–2 adults and 1–4 kids or teens. Each person can buy up to four tickets, sales stop when capacity is reached, and at-door passes are only sold if any are left. Tickets cannot be refunded or transferred, so be sure of your dates before you pay.
Watch out: Wonderfruit is the only official seller. Klook and Viator list no 2026 passes, and resold wristbands are a risk because your ID is checked every time you enter.
Gate Times and Site Rules
You collect an RFID wristband at the Box Office and show ID each time you go in. The gates open at 4pm on Thursday 3 December, then 8am to midnight on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. There is no entry between midnight and 8am, and anyone who leaves after midnight on Sunday cannot re-enter on Monday 7 December. Weekend Pass holders cannot enter before 8am on Saturday, even if they are camping on site.
Inside, the festival is cashless: you top up your wristband, and ATMs are on site. Outside food, soft drinks and alcohol are confiscated at security, and drinking flasks are emptied. Drones and professional camera gear need a permit in advance. There is no public WiFi, and phone signal is patchy, so bring a battery pack; charging points sit at each water station.
Getting to The Fields
The Fields are at Siam Country Club, Siam Country Soi 5, Pong, Bang Lamung, Chonburi 20150 (ซอย สยามคันทรี 5 ต.โป่ง อ.บางละมุง จ.ชลบุรี). From the Chonburi–Pattaya Motorway (Route 7), take Route 36 east towards Rayong for about 8 km, U-turn at the large Siam Country Club sign, then follow the Wonderfruit signs past the Bira go-kart circuit. Searching “Wonderfruit” in Google Maps brings up the festival pin.
From Bangkok, the simplest route is a bus, van or transfer to Pattaya, then a short ride out to the site; compare Bangkok to Pattaya bus and van tickets. Allow two to three hours from central Bangkok, more on the Thursday afternoon.
Wonderfruit runs its own shuttle network between partner hotels and The Fields, but the 2026 Shuttle Pass and parking passes are listed as “coming soon”. In past years the shuttle was an unlimited-ride pass, with parking pre-booked per entry, so check the official site in November. Taxis and Grab work, but fares to and from the site climb steeply at festival time, so share rides where you can.
Where to Stay for Wonderfruit
On site, General Camping costs 1,500 THB per person for the five days (bring your own tent; none are for rent), with shared showers, toilets, charging and water points. Boutique Camping pavilion tents start at 25,000 THB for a bed in a shared three-bed tent, and Slow Wonder cabins are the top tier with air conditioning and ensuite bathrooms. Camping and cabins are booked separately from your pass.
Off site, Na Jomtien is the closest beach area, followed by Jomtien and Pratumnak; central Pattaya works if you want nightlife between festival days. Rooms across the whole coast fill early, and Tomorrowland Thailand runs the following weekend (11–13 December), so book as soon as you have your pass. For cheaper beds, look along Jomtien Beach.
