Music Festivals Hopefully to Return
Road To Ultra – Bangkok
The Road to Ultra is coming back to Thailand. According to the website, it says coming soon. Seeing other destinations in Asia, the Event will most likely happen in September 2018. In recent years, these music festivals have attracted some of the best DJs on the planet include Jack U, David Guetta, Martin Garrix, Afrojack and Avicii. The city’s underground music fans are already getting excited about the return.
Maya Music Festival

It’s not just the capital that boasts all the fun when it comes to raving alongside thousands of other people. Bangkok witnessed the MAYA event at Show December in December. Maya is a two-day outdoor celebration of dance music with much-followed DJs. In recent years we could dance on music from Tiesto, Zedd Alesso, Markus Schulz, Porter Robinson, Showtek and many more headlining.
808 Festival Bangkok
Dates: Expected December 2018
808 is one of the oldest music festivals, and lots of us know this festival when it grew over the years. The Festival usually takes place in December and has welcomed Axwell, Above And Beyond, Boombox Cartel, Vini Vici. The music festival unites people and took place a Live Park Rama 9.
Mystic Festival Khao Yai
Dates: Unconfirmed.
Fans were disappointed. A little north in Khao Yai we saw the first ever Mystic Valley Festival two years ago in a beautiful valley far away from the big city. The location is an excellent choice. The challenge organizers experienced was the distance to get there with so much going on in Bangkok. It is unclear if Mystic Valley will return to the festival music landscape.
Big Mountain Festival 2019
Dates: Usually around September.
Big Mountain is a massive music festival from GMM Grammy presenting favorite Thai artists and bands. The festival attracts a substantial Thai crowd travelling to the festival to see their favorite artists on stage. Artists who appeared here are Potato, Paradox and Peck Palitchote.
