From wellness activities, culinary experiences by world-class chefs, art installations and workshops, shopping, to educational speakers, this festival truly packs a worth-while punch. In all that they do, the Wonderfruit team seeks to inspire others by pushing boundaries, and innovating sustainable solutions for everyday life while bringing together a community of kindered spirits.

“The Wonderfruit ethos is built upon six pillars: arts, music, farm to feast, wellness and adventure, talks, workshops, and family. These pillars ensure that we curate a diverse programme that is inclusive for artists, speakers, musicians, and DJs from around the region. To do so, we incorporate education and entertainment (or “edutainment”) into the festival, and our guests form meaningful connections and become more mindfully conscious consumers with regard to the natural environment.” – Katrina Razon, director at Wonderfruit.

The fields of Pattaya, Thailand act as a blank canvas for the festival's creative partners and brilliant artists who are able to transport attendees to a “sustainable utopia” through spectacular eco-friendly architecture, design and landscaping. Wonderfruit welcomes guests, known as Wonderers, encouraging them to immerse themselves in the interactive and stimulating environment they've developed; “a pop-up city where eco-friendly solutions and inspiring encounters bring people together."

Did you know that at Wonderfruit, everything in The Fields is constructed from sustainable items? All materials used, from the creation of stages, art installations, multi-use spaces all the way down to everyday food stalls are made with sustainable, locally-sourced or recycled materials. Every stage can pretty much be called a work of art as they are all architectural or musical feats. One particular highlight is Wonderfruit’s Solar Stage (conceptualized by Artist and architect Gregg Fleishman) because it is made without any nails. The stage is built out of modular pieces that fit together like lego or puzzle pieces and every year the stage is taken apart. Designers then head to the drawing board to conceptualise how its modular pieces can be re-used to create spectacular new architectural shapes.

Accommodation : You have 4 options

Option 1: Pitch your own tent
 
There is a general camping section where Wonderers can pitch their own tents which they must bring for themselves. Wonderers will have access to showers, toilets and drinking water.
 
Option 2: Rent a tent
 
You can choose between 2 different types of tents and can opt for a fan or air-conditioning. Here, Wonderers will be provided with a bed, towels, bath soaps, and welcome accoutrements from Wonderfruit. In the air-condition tents, there will be blankets as well.

Wonderers may choose to stay at near-by hotels that have partnered with the festival. Note that these locations are not walking distance from the Wonderfruit grounds.

“Wonderfruit is a festival of immersive experiences that engage, inspire, and empower positive influence on our planet through emergent music and art forms. Thousands of guests from Thailand and around the world embark on the pilgrimage to the festival that is held annually on the Fields of Siam Country Club in Pattaya, Thailand” shares Katrina Razon, director at Wonderfruit

Expect wellness, healing and mindfulness workshops at Wonderness, plus compelling talks by international industry experts or disruptors at the Eco-Pavillion. Take this journey to discover new things about yourself too.
 
Cash-less environment
 
Wonderers can safely leave their cash and cards in their tent because Wonderfruit has special wristbands which can be loaded with a balance of money to purchase anything at the festival grounds through the simple scan of the wrist – a system that works incredibly efficiently and fast. Whatever monetary balance is not finished can be withdrawn from the wristband at the end of the festival when you check-out.

This year, the festival has partnered with Musicity, “a site-specific sound/arts practice that invites musicians and recording artists to compose tracks in response to buildings and locations in cities around the world” shares Musicity.
