The story

Bangkok International Dance and Music Festival in Bangkok

Bangkok's International Festival of Dance and Music is a ticketed performing-arts season at the Thailand Cultural Centre, bringing international opera, ballet, orchestral concerts, contemporary dance and large theatrical productions to one main stage over several weeks. Audiences choose individual productions rather than attending a continuous all-day programme.

Bangkok's International Festival of Dance and Music feels less like an outdoor festival than a carefully assembled international theatre season.

The place changes

Few Bangkok events sustain this breadth at full theatrical scale: a festival season can move from grand opera and classical ballet to hip-hop choreography, circus theatre and symphonic performance

02

The mystery stays covered

Founded in 1999, it has royal patronage and uses the large Main Hall of the Thailand Cultural Centre rather than a temporary festival stage

The city starts moving

International touring companies arrive with complete productions, while collaborations such as visiting opera singers with the Royal Bangkok Symphony Orchestra connect them to Bangkok's own musical institutions
