S2O Taiwan vs S2O Bangkok: Asia's S2O festivals compared

How do the S2O editions compare?

S2O Taiwan and S2O Korea are summer weekends, while S2O Bangkok, where it all started, lands on the Songkran holiday every April, one party inside a city-wide water fight. S2O Japan and S2O Hong Kong haven't run since 2024.

Ask Tanner about Songkran week in Bangkok.

What is S2O Taiwan like?

S2O Taiwan is a two-day summer weekend in Taipei, not a holiday week. The 6th edition ran on 13 and 14 June 2026 at Dajia Riverside Park, from 2pm to 10pm each day, for ages 18 and up, with tickets on FamiTicket and Megatix. It's the same water cannons and big-stage EDM as Bangkok, but the city outside the gates isn't in a water fight.

S2O Taiwan 2027 hasn't been announced. If you want the water festival as well as the stage, S2O Bangkok at Songkran is the one, and Tanner plans the week around it.

What's an S2O Bangkok night like?

An S2O Bangkok night is big-stage EDM and water at S2O Land on Ratchada Road, near MRT Thailand Cultural Centre, three nights in a row at Songkran. In 2026 it ran from 11 to 13 April: gates at 4pm, the show from 5pm, ages 20 and up. K2O, the all-ages edition, followed on 14 April, and the four days drew more than 100,000 fans.

Step out of the gates and the rest of the city is still in the water fight. Silom by afternoon, S2O by night, a club table after: that's the week.

When is S2O 2027 in Bangkok?

S2O 2027 in Bangkok isn't announced yet. It runs every April at Songkran, and the 2027 Songkran holiday is Tuesday 13 to Thursday 15 April, so expect it around those days.

Bangkok's other Songkran music festival already has its dates: SIAM Songkran runs from Saturday 10 to Tuesday 13 April 2027 at Bravo BKK on Rama 9. Read SIAM Songkran for the passes, and Songkran in Bangkok for the street water fights.

What else is on in Bangkok around S2O?

Around S2O, Bangkok has a full Songkran week: a second music festival, free city water festivals and the street water fights. Here's the 2027 week, with 2026 details where 2027 isn't out yet.

Read Bangkok festivals for the rest of the city's year.

Which S2O should you go to?

Go to S2O in Bangkok: it's the original, and it's the only one where the whole city is a water fight around it, on the three Songkran public holidays, 13 to 15 April in 2027. Taipei and Seoul are good if you're already there in June or July, but the festival is the whole event.

• Bangkok: S2O plus Silom Road, Khao San Road and SIAM Songkran, all in one week.
• After Bangkok: Pattaya's Wan Lai is expected around 17 to 19 April 2027, and the Full Moon Party is on 21 April.

How do you plan a Songkran and S2O trip?

Plan a Songkran and S2O trip around a Bangkok pool villa: water fights by day, your driver to S2O Land for the 5pm show, and the car waiting after the last set. Tanner sets it up to your dates.

• Arriving: airport fast track at Suvarnabhumi or Don Mueang, ฿2,400 a person: a greeter meets you at the gate and walks you through the fast immigration lane.
• Festival nights: a luxury van with a driver from ฿6,500 for 10 hours, for up to 4.
• Your base: a private pool villa from ฿18,500 a day.
• After the festival: a club table, priced to your trip and quoted the same day.

Read Songkran in a pool villa for the whole week. Plan it with Tanner.

What can you do before and after S2O Bangkok?

Coming to Bangkok for S2O? A driver meets you at the airport, and after each festival night the party moves on to the Bangkok super clubs.

Base the group in a pool villa and add a yacht day from Pattaya. See every option on the VIP page.

What's S2O around Asia in short?

• S2O Bangkok runs every April at Songkran; in 2026 it ran 11 to 13 April, with K2O on 14 April.

• S2O Taiwan ran 13 to 14 June 2026 and S2O Korea 11 to 12 July 2026; Japan and Hong Kong last ran in 2024.
• S2O 2027 isn't announced yet; Songkran 2027 is 13 to 15 April.

Plan it with Tanner.
