A new underground music event space began hosting their special six-series event as part of their grand opening this weekend. 
 
Kangkao is a Thai DJ collective consisting of four local acts that formed during the COVID-19 pandemic. Saturday saw the launch of their “Kangkao Echo” music event series, which will play out over the next six months at the new venue of the same name. The event series will showcase local and international talent complimented by art and light installations.
 
“We will be showcasing various performances in the space,” Kangkao creative director and DJ Payu Von Buren told Coconuts. “The six events will be mainly music-based with immersive lighting surrounded by different set installations to immerse you even more into the setting.” 
 
“In between those six events we are working to use the space as a function hall for exhibitions of art, fashion, lifestyle.”
 
The first event, titled ‘Into the Unknown’, took place on Saturday (May 27). 
 
In addition to the tunes, expect home-cooked Pakistani, Peruvian and Vietnamese food by social platform Na Project. All proceeds made from food sales will be donated to refugee families and the youth training program at Sati Non-Profit.
 
The 900-sqm Kangkao Echo venue is located inside Trinity Mall in Silom, and the next event will be on June 24, followed by July 22, August 26, September 23, and October 28. Tickets are available via Ticketmelon for B800.
