Beer People Festival has now expanded into People Festival 2026, growing from a beer-focused event into a bigger festival built around small producers, community, and shared economic space.

You do not need a fixed plan before going. It works just as well for people who want to browse and see what kind of holiday offers stand out.
Matsuri Flea Market x UNLEASH at MunMun Srinakarin

Matsuri Flea Market x UNLEASH mixes Japanese street style, food, fashion, design, and car culture into one weekend event. It has more personality than a standard market and feels especially good for people who enjoy visual, youth-driven events with a bit of edge.
Even if you are not into cars, there is enough here to make it worth a visit, from the styling and stalls to the overall atmosphere. Notable events include the matcha workshop, Omen mask painting, and Wagasa workshop.

Date & Time: Saturday, March 7, 6pm to 9pm
Location: BarBlah, 5th Floor, Bangkok – Google Maps

Pitch a Friend Edition is not your usual singles event. Instead of introducing yourself, your friend does the talking, giving the night a more playful and less awkward feel from the start. Along with the live pitch sessions, the event also includes structured games and mingling designed to help conversations flow more naturally.
With limited spots, a cosy crowd, and a mix of Thais and expats mostly in the 25 to 40 age range, it looks like a fun choice for anyone open to meeting new people in a more light-hearted setting.

It gives the event a real sense of occasion, especially for anyone who wants to see Muay Thai in one of the country’s most iconic venues.
For those after a more premium experience, the stadium is also offering a very limited number of panoramic balcony seats with access to the Rajadamnern VIP Lounge, complete with stadium views, soft drinks, snacks, and a more exclusive setting.
