Our five fave festivals in Asia
Get yourself on a plane
Wonderfruit
Asia’s first all-encompassing lifestyle festival, Wonderfruit combines an eclectic line-up of musical acts with an equally eclectic range of activities, including food, architecture, art installations, film and theatre and even paragliding adventures around the lush green fields that surround the Pattaya location.
Inspired by the UK’s Secret Garden Party, you’re as likely to see carnival-type characters warming up with mid-afternoon yoga as you are to share a pig feast with Bangkok hipsters.
The festival knows how to curate a line-up, too, with Seth Troxler, Gaslamp Killer, Daedelus and De La Soul all appearing in the past.
This year’s edition takes place from December 15 to 18.
