After years of conjecture, the organizers of Belgian dance mega-festival Tomorrowland have confirmed that they’re launching a Thailand edition in 2026.
This will mark Tomorrowland’s debut edition in Asia and follows Tomorrowland ventures in the United States from 2013 to 2015, myriad editions in Brazil, and the Tomorrowland Winter festival that happens annually in the French Alps, along with the flagship event that’s been happening annually in Boom, Belgium, for 20 years.
Tomorrowland Thailand will happen Dec. 11-13, 2026 at a 237-acre site in Wisdom Valley in Pattaya, Khao Mai Kaew, Bang Lamung District, Chonburi Province, an area known for its nature areas and natural beauty. Unlike the summer flagship festival in Belgium, Tomorrowland Thailand will not offer camping areas for attendees, with a hotel package sale opening Feb. 28 and a general ticket sale beginning March 8.
In a statement released Tuesday (Jan. 6) Tomorrowland organizers noted that the festival will happen in partnership with the Thai Government, Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT).
“Chosen over several other Asian destinations, Thailand’s appointment underscores its growing influence on the global stage of music, innovation, and experience-driven tourism,” the statement reads. “A festival of this magnitude is expected to generate a significant impact on the local and national economy, boosting tourism, hospitality, and creative industries while welcoming festivalgoers from across the globe. Tomorrowland Thailand will not only introduce a new audience to the magic of Tomorrowland; it will also shine a global spotlight on Thailand as a hub for large-scale cultural and entertainment experiences.”
A statement from the Tourism Authority of Thailand also notes that “Hosting Tomorrowland in Thailand marks an important milestone in our ambition to position the country as a leader in global tourism and creative experiences. We look forward to welcoming people from all over the world to discover the beauty, culture, and hospitality of Thailand.”
