Dreaming wide awake at Wonderfruit

For almost a decade, Wonderfruit has been our December ritual. Where else can you hear a Mongolian throat singer sparring with an LA DJ, or stumble on a Thai molam band remixed into electronica? One year it was eerie Icelandic acoustic folk, another a German marching band kicking it up like we’ve never seen. It feels alive, improvised and delightfully strange. The crowd is as eclectic as the program: Thai families, barefoot ravers, global creatives, wellness seekers, kids with face paint chasing fireflies.

For ten years, Wonderfruit has been reshaping what a festival can feel like. Tens of thousands of trees planted, wetlands restored, kitchens supplied with food from the land itself. No single-use plastics, no lazy greenwashing –— every detail designed with care for people and place.

By day, you drift between shaded art installations, tea rituals, talks, and long meals built from the land itself –— jackfruit, coconut, figs and herbs grown right there. By night, the Fields transform: light sculptures bloom across the land, bamboo towers glow like lanterns from another world, and suddenly you’re a raver-Alice in Wonderfruitland; – a fairytale for grown-up dreamers.

This December, Wonderfruit turns ten with new magic in the Fields: Baan Bardo, a kinetic pavilion of shifting light and space, and an expanded Sonic Minds scattering sound experiments across the land. If you’ve never been, this is the year to taste it. If you’re already a pilgrim like us –— see you under the stars.
