The long-rumored move is now official: Tomorrowland, the world’s most iconic electronic dance music festival, has confirmed its first-ever full-scale expansion into Asia. The debut edition of Tomorrowland Thailand is set to take place from December 11 to 13, 2026, marking a new chapter in the festival’s global history.
The announcement, made on January 6, 2026, follows a strategic five-year agreement between the festival organizers and the Thai government.
