Returning for a third iteration, Beatforest Festival has announced they’ll be bringing more tunes to Khao Yai in January 2026, along with artists, communal camping, and conservation-centric events.
The theme for this year’s jungle party is “Community, Movement, Regrowth”, returning once again for a thoughtful, conservation-minded underground music party in the mountains.
Held every year in an open field near Bonanza Khao Yai, the festival has not yet announced acts for the festival, but, unlike Rolling Loud, it’s still early days.
Festival-goers can expect a one-day festival on January 31 to see out the first month of 2026, and you can expect local artists and acts. The first festival came with two stages, but in 2025, they upgraded to three.
Also, the festival has grabbed a few headlines for its non-festival-like activities like cycling and tree planting. Despite featuring big acts from the underground music scene, this festival has been quick to include things like communal camping jams and mindfulness experiences to take advantage of the Khao Yai vibes.
Details are scant so far, and while we don’t know the ticket prices, you’re going to pay a lot less than you would for something like Wonderfruit, with tickets in the B1,300-B1,800 range in the last two years.
Also, since it’s in the boonies, there are accommodation packages as well as deals for camping at about B500 and “car camping” options.
