The annual Thai New Year, also known as Songkran, is a time where people gather together to ring in the new year with water celebrations that last through the week. With the festivities right around the corner comes along S2O Festival, the biggest Songkran water festival to take place in Thailand each April. The festival first came about as a byproduct of combining the concept of music festivals and water blowouts into a one of a kind massive extravaganza. Following it’s debut in 2014, S2O has become one of the most highly anticipated events each year with past revelers leaving the show in high spirits and promising to return for the next. This year’s edition will be held across three days on the 13th to 15th of April 2018 at Live Park Rama 9 in Bangkok, Thailand.

Never one for small scale events, Woody World’s S2O Festival has earned it’s name for being one of Asia’s biggest productions! Enthralling fireworks that light up the skies, world class audio visuals, a dazzling display of lights, an impressive 20 meter high stage structure, or a myriad of water cannons ready to shoot out jet streams of water - you name it, they’ve got it. Over the course of five years, the S2O brand has expanded extensively. Last year’s event had 42,000 festival goers in attendance, with 30% from other countries - making S2O a definite go to for tourists across the globe looking to revel in the Songkran festivities.

With the complete roster of artists playing at this year’s S2O only recently released, it is no doubt that S2O Festival have outdone themselves yet again. Acts from the past years have included huge names such as Afrojack, Yellow Claw, Dash Berlin, Yves V, Don Diablo and more. This year, S2O Festival has managed to book a fine selection of performers not only of different genres but each act of who have their own niches.

Trap connoisseur DJ Snake is joined by his Pardon My French counterpart, future house act Tchami. Vintage Culture has taken the Brazilian scene by a storm, fan favorite Oliver Heldens knows how to get a crowd shuffling, while Ookay’s debut live show has received praise far and wide. Fans of the electro house genre will be pleased by the appearances of three stellar DJs - Ummet Ozcan, Tujamo and TJR. Double duos Sick Individuals and Mashd N Kutcher will be taking to the stage as well - their energetic dance beats have always kept the crowd going.

Also on S2O’s billing are three stellar female acts - powerhouse sister duo Krewella, Australian HYPERHOUSE founder Anna Lunoe and Smash The House’s electrifying MATTN. In addition to the bigger names are up, and coming producers K?D from the States and Henri PFR of Belgium, both of who have jump-started a wide platform for themselves in crafting a unique sound and brand of their own. A roster as varied as 2018’s S2O Festival is an impressive feat and does not come by often.
