About this event
The festival's organiser told TTG Asia that Awakening Bangkok will return around the beginning of December 2026, following the 2025 edition in the Phra Nakhon old town. The dates shown here mirror the previous edition, which ran from 12 to 21 December 2025, and are unconfirmed. Installations are mostly outdoors and free to view, and the route rewards slow walking through a historic district after dark.
