Wonderfruit 2026 FAQ
The answers here come from the organiser's FAQ, ticket page, terms, Program Passes post, Directory, camping and hotel pages, from Ticketmelon, and from GOV.UK, the Immigration Bureau and the Tourism Authority of Thailand. Each answer names its source, read between 21 and 24 October 2026. Dates, the venue and the line-up are in the guide, prices and sale rounds on the tickets page, camping and the journey on the stay and travel page.

What is Wonderfruit?

How do I get to Wonderfruit from Bangkok?
The organiser's FAQ lists buses, minivans, airport limousines, trains and car rentals, without picking one. Roong Reuang Coach runs a direct bus from Suvarnabhumi Airport to Pattaya Bus Terminal, about two hours by its own account. The festival's own shuttles and parking were "Coming soon" on 24 October 2026. Two partner hotels have an official shuttle stop in the lobby, and Royal Cliff Beach Hotel Pattaya runs its own at 15:00 and 18:00.
Do I need a visa for Thailand, and what is the arrival card?
Since 15 September 2026, passports of 60 countries and territories can enter without a visa for tourism and stay up to 30 days, says the Tourism Authority of Thailand. The UK, the US, Australia and every EU member state are among them. GOV.UK asks British visitors for a passport valid for at least six months after arrival, with a blank page. You also fill in the Thailand Digital Arrival Card in the three days before you arrive, on the Immigration Bureau's site, which says no fee is required. The details are under Before you fly.
What are the gate times, and is there re-entry?
On Thursday 3 December the gates open at 16:00, and from Friday to Sunday at 08:00. Last entry is at midnight on each of those days, and Monday 7 December is the last morning. You can come back in, except from midnight to 08:00, when the gates admit nobody. If you leave after midnight on Sunday 6 December, you cannot return on Monday 7. The Intro Pass allows no re-entry at all. The organiser says the times may change.
Can children come to Wonderfruit?
Yes. "All ages are welcome", says the organiser. Children 12 and under go free with no ticket in advance, but must be with a parent, guardian or nominated guardian. Ticketmelon's page puts it as under-13s with a parent or guardian. Ages 13 to 19 take the Teen Pass. Everyone under 20 wears a Teen wristband and cannot buy alcohol. A Family Pass gives 5% off for one or two adults with one to four children or teens.
Do I need ID at Wonderfruit?
Have it with you. The organiser's FAQ says "Guests will be required to show their ID upon request as proof of age at any time". The Teen Pass says "Valid ID required on entry". The terms ask each Intro and Youth Pass holder for a government-issued ID with name and date of birth, and a Youth Pass holder can only enter with the original ID used to apply. Ticketmelon's page says "ID check required". Boutique Camping check-in asks for "Your physical ID or passport".
Can I bring my dog?
Yes, with a Dog Pass for the five days, THB 1,000, or THB 1,500 at the door, on the organiser's ticket page (read 24 October 2026). The owner needs a festival ticket too. The organiser's list bars animals other than dogs with a Dog Pass.
Is Wonderfruit cashless?
Yes. You pay with a wristband you top up, and there are ATMs on site for that. The organiser warns that "top-ups made using a Credit Card are non-refundable, so having some cash is always a good idea".
What can't I bring to Wonderfruit?
The organiser's list for the festival and General Camping is long. It bars glass of any kind, single-use plastics, and outside food and drink. The exceptions for food are baby formula, and food for campers with dietary requirements. It also bars gas or electric stoves, drones, selfie sticks, hoverboards, bicycles, skateboards, rollerblades, totems, large signs and Native American headdresses. Alcohol, nitrous oxide and narcotics are confiscated, and "large amounts will be referred to police". Weapons are banned. Nasal or throat sprays need a prescription. The list also names "Weed exceeding a palm-sized amount (for personal use only)". Allowed: prescribed medicine with your name on it, sealed supplements, camping gear, chairs, solar chargers, trolleys, hammocks, mallets and stakes.
Can I bring a camera or a drone?
Not without the organiser's permit. Its FAQ says "Cameras and drones are forbidden unless you have applied for and received a permit from Wonderfruit in advance." The camping page's list bars professional camera equipment but allows a DSLR, with extra lenses and tripods needing approval.
Is there Wi-Fi or phone charging?
There is no Wi-Fi, and the organiser warns that the signal is patchy. You can charge your phone at the water refill stations.
Can I get a refund, or resell my ticket?
No. The organiser's terms say all ticket purchases are non-refundable, and that tickets "cannot be exchanged, resold, or transferred under any circumstances". Ticketmelon's page says the same: "All sales are final. No refunds or transfers." There is no official resale channel.
How many people go to Wonderfruit?
The organiser's pages give no figure. The Standard reported more than 25,000 at the 2024 edition.
Was Wonderfruit 2025 cancelled?
No. The tenth edition ran from Thursday 11 to Monday 15 December 2025, according to Time Out Bangkok. The organiser posted its Saturday highlights on 13 December 2025.
Why is Wonderfruit a week early this year?
The 2026 edition is a week earlier than the usual second weekend of December, and the organiser's pages give no reason. Time Out Asia, on 9 March 2026, linked the move to Tomorrowland's Pattaya debut on the usual weekend.
What is Wonderfruit Kyoto?

The organiser's FAQ lists Camp Wonder, 18–23 December 2026, Field.D, 20 December 2026, and Din Daen, 29–31 January 2027. Its site menu also names Open Fields, "Dec 2026–Jan 2027". On 24 October 2026 the organiser gave names and dates only, with no place, price or page for any of them.
When is the full Wonderfruit 2026 schedule out?
Partly now. On 24 October 2026 the organiser's Directory, headed "FIRST RELEASE", gave a day and a time for 110 of its 136 music acts. The FAQ says the full schedule will be released on the Wonder App "later in the year". The Directory dates a slot by the day it starts, so "Sat 5 Dec 00:00" falls in the small hours after Friday night.
When is Wonderfruit 2027?
