With its unique two-day format and famously high definition and super sized production, all in idyllic island setting, Halfmoon Festival has long offered one of the most transportive dance music experiences in the world. From beach bliss to forest rave, each edition kicks off at the stunning Harmony Beach Club where you ease in with beachside beats, fire dancers and exotic performers, making for plenty of daytime fun. There are pool parties, games and endless tropical cocktails to enjoy as the sun sets over the Gulf of Thailand and leads into day two. 

The second night then transforms the Magical Forest into a surreal nighttime playground. Surrounded by palms and jungle canopy, three custom-built stages – The Prime Stage, G Floor, and The Cave – are all curated with their own soundtrack and host everything from melodic techno and psychedelic trance to house, indie, hip-hop and experimental live sets. Fire shows, LED visuals and vivid production make this a vibrant, sensory stimulating rave like no other.

With over 2,000 accommodation options on the island ranging from beachside bungalows to luxury resorts, Koh Phangan offers easy access to wellness retreats, waterfalls, hiking, local markets and the festival itself. Daily ferries from Koh Samui and a growing number of direct flights into Surat Thani and Samui Airport mean it’s never been easier to escape to paradise.

Thailand’s legendary Halfmoon Festival is one of the most famous open-air electronic events in the world and it now announces the artist line-ups for its high season from August – December 2025.

Halfmoon Festival takes place every two weeks and draws international and local DJs from the house, techno, trance and indie dance scenes. Each two-day festival experience begins with beachside activities such as international DJs, fire performers, exotic dancers, dipping pool, private beach, fun festival games such as giant Jenga, beer pong, hula hooping, juggling and more at the opulent Harmony Beach Club.

Then day two heads into the Magical Forest of Koh Phangan where three stages await for an all night multi-sensory rave beneath the moonlit canopy featuring fire shows, and three distinct dance floors. They are the Prime Stage, G Floor, and The Cave, the festival hosts a blend of live performances and DJ sets, ranging from melodic techno and psychedelic trance to house, indie dance, hip-hop and reggaeton with industry leading lighting and sound, festival infrastructure and plenty of hidden surprises in the Halfmoon Magical Forest venue.

The upcoming editions from August until December will feature performances from Blastoyz, Reality Test, Ghost Rider, WHITENO1SE, BERG, Ranji, Silver Panda, MR.BLACK, Weekend Heroes, Querox, Phaxe, Junam, Brahma, Tezla, Terra, Timelock, Tripical Note, Faith, Vakabular, Sun Diary, Seebeat and Esther Simon, T-Gecko, Konos, Jordan Love, amongst many more. 

Founded in 2002, the festival offers an alternative to the island’s more commercial beach parties. With a focus on high-quality sound, lighting and artistic design and upscale European-style production in a tropical jungle setting, it transforms the venue into a themed space called the Magical Forest, carefully curated by designer Carin Dickson.

Koh Phangan’s natural beauty and laid-back atmosphere provide a unique backdrop for the festival, with nearly 2,000 accommodation options available, from hostels and bungalows to high-end resorts. It is an essential stop off for any self respecting raver and there has never been a better time to experience it than now.
