Wonderfruit, Thailand’s annual celebration of culture, art, music and nature, returns for its 11th edition from 3 – 7 December 2026 at The Fields of Siam Country Club. After a milestone 10th anniversary in 2025, the festival opens a new decade by looking to where it began: the Fields, the roots and the people who gather there.
This edition continues Wonderfruit’s exploration of Mind, Nature and Sound through creative expression. Its organising idea, The Field Village, looks back to Wonderfruit’s roots as a homegrown Thai festival and treats The Fields as a living village. Over the years, the pavilions, art installations and farms on The Fields have become spaces for cultural exchange, forests have become classrooms and the spaces in between have become sites of discovery. Artists, musicians, farmers, cooks, designers and storytellers each add a layer to the landscape. The experience is found in wandering, between conversations, meals, performances and moments of curiosity.
In 2025, Wonderfruit welcomed 28,000 Wonderers to The Fields, representing 124 nationalities from 141 countries and spanning all ages, across more than 750 programmes over five days.
Reflecting on the new edition, Founder ‘Pete’ Pranitan Phornprapha shared, “We see the Field in two ways. Firstly, as the physical landscape, the village and the place that gathers us together. It’s the ground we create and care for, learn from, and share with others. Secondly, the Field reaches beyond its physical boundaries. It’s a field of ideas, energy and exchange, a space where knowledge is shared, cultures meet and curiosity sparks new ways of thinking and being.”
He continued, “As the Field enters a new chapter, so does its archive. We’re expanding how stories, ideas and experiments are documented and shared. Wonderfruit is becoming a cultural platform where culture is something to experience, an ever-evolving story of ideas, connection and creativity that remains alive throughout the year. The Field is a living, working space for learning and experimentation that culminates each December. We’re starting from the roots before reaching for what comes next. What cultivates in the Fields is what becomes Wonderfruit.”
This vision runs through the 2026 programme, guided by the manifesto and expressed through experiences that sit at the intersection of Wonderfruit’s pillars of Mind, Nature and Sound. Here’s an early look at what’s taking shape across The Fields:
Rediscovering music. The music programme turns towards listening with intention, opening pathways into genres, scenes and sonic traditions from around the world, with local artists and communities at the centre. It is about cherishing the unfamiliar.
Rewilding and the forests. The 2026 edition looks past planting alone and towards the wider ecology of rewilding, where biodiversity and human stewardship work together, with a goal to plant 100,000 trees. The Fields’ forests, cared for year-round, continue to grow as habitats and gathering places: the Ancestral, Medicinal, Yangna and Suan Rom forests.
Continuing Art across The Fields. Site-specific installations respond to the landscape across the Fields, made to spark connection and bring people together. Local and regional artist residencies connect the ongoing field village with the Wonderfruit festival.
Wonderness expands to four days. Wonderfruit’s world of wellness is a full four-day experience rooted in immersion. Thai traditional wellbeing is the root for other forms of exchanging practices. These include Dhyana, which is drawn from Buddhist traditions, and Origin, an unconditional space for mindfulness and self-inquiry through the visual arts.
Beyond the festival. Wonderfruit’s year reaches well beyond the five days in December. Chapters Kyoto brings the first international edition to Japan (22–25 October 2026), while Wonderfruit’s home opens for several months under Open Fields, hosting cultural expressions across its forests, farms and multi-purpose spaces. That programme includes Opening the Field with Jataka school, an all-ages exploration of play and presence rooted in Buddhist teaching (18–23 December 2026); Field D, an evening for the sonically curious (20 January 2027); and Din Daen, a modern village built on Thai medicine and folk wisdom (29–31 January 2027).
