There might not be as many music festivals in South East Asia as there are in other areas of the world, but that is slowly changing. With the ever-growing popularity of electronic music, more and more festivals are popping up in this region.
You might not come to South-East Asia for the music festivals, but if you’re planning a trip out here, maybe one of these could be worked into your itinerary

1) Wonderfruit Fstival
When: Mid – December
Where: Siam Country Club, Pattaya, Thailand

Live. Love. Wonder. That’s the motto of this incredible 3-day camping music and arts festival held on the beautiful Pattaya Fields Siam Country Club. I normally tell people to avoid Pattaya as a city because it really is a horrific place, but this beautiful venue is 15 KM outside the city, and you’ll fall into festival mode. The camping area is decent and well equipped, the stages are amazing, and the line-up brings a little something for everyone.
This is one of the best festivals you can attend in south-east Asia. Read my Wonderfruit Festival 2014 review for more information and pictures. I was lucky enough to attend the first year, and definitely have plans to make the journey back.

Starting with the inspiration from the “Hò” melodies, the HOZO – “Hò Dô” International Music Festival will be a place where Vietnamese music and cultural identity reach out to the world, as well as an opportunity for Vietnamese audiences to move closer to international music-cultural trends.”
