UnKonscious Festival returns to Pattaya for four days of pure trance
Running from January 29 to February 1, the beach festival presents multi-venue events & over 40 international artists
UnKonscious Festival returns to Pattaya, Thailand from January 29 to February 1, 2026, continuing its legacy as Asia’s largest trance-focused beach festival.
Founded in 2018, UnKonscious has hosted more than 200 artists across seven editions held in Thailand, Croatia, and the UK.
The festival is produced by Pure Pleasure Entertainment, a promoter with over 15 years of experience delivering large-scale events and international artist bookings across Asia and Europe.
Spanning four days and five venues, UnKonscious blends a beachfront festival with boat and pool parties, curated after-hours programming, and performances from more than 40 international DJs.
In terms of music? The focus remains firmly on pure trance; no crossover EDM acts.
The 2026 edition opens with a Classic Trance Boat Party at the Tappia Floating Café, where you'll be able to experience open-sea views of the Pattaya coastline soundtracked by classic trance selections.
Then from January 30–31, the main beach festival unfolds at Alexa Beach Club, where daytime sets gradually transition into full-scale evening performances by the sea. Each night then moves indoors, with afterparties at the Pinnacle Grand Jomtien Ballroom extending the program late into the night.
