As 2017 reached its end, music lovers gathered at The Fields in Siam Country Club near Pattaya. They were there for Wonderfruit, one of the year’s biggest music and arts festivals. Between December 14 and 17, festival-goers witnessed a fabulous celebration of music, art and international culture.

Wonderfruit had something for everybody - interesting workshops, inspiring art and great food and drink. But the main attraction was, of course, the music.

Wonderfruit 2017 boasted a fantastic line-up. Major international acts like British rapper Roots Manuva, Canadian electronic artist Richie Hawtin and English indie-pop band Wild Beasts featured alongside local favourites such as Singto Numchok, Rasmee Isan Soul and Yellow Fang.

S Weekly was there to join in all the fun. Here are some photos capturing the highlights of the latest Wonderfruit.
