Wellington’s Waterfront will come alive on April 9 and 10 with the sights, tastes and sounds of Thailand.
This special two-day festival is celebrating 60 years of diplomatic relations between Thailand and New Zealand.
Join us for a variety of authentic Thai food, unique cultural experiences and beautiful performances.
Learn the delicate art of Thai handcraft with a range of demonstrations highlighting the exquisiteness of Thai culture. Observe the drawing of Khon masks, embroidery of Kohn costumes, scented candle carving, fruit and vegetable carving, popped rice displays and more.
Sample Thai delicacies not easily found in Thai restaurants, such as crispy gems in coconut milk or fried banana and kumara.
Take a ride on a tuk-tuk and learn to write your name in Thai characters.
Encounter a classical Khon Thai performance that was once only performed for royalty. This truly cultural experience combines several art forms including drama, music, painting and sculpture to create a traditional performance reflective of beauty, perfection and harmony.
With many other performances on both days, including the Dance of the Four Regions (North, South, Central and Northeast Thailand), there is plenty for the whole family to enjoy.

We apologize for any inconvenience caused.
