After going dark during the pandemic, former backpacker destination Khaosan Road will spring back to life with light installations, music, tours, food, art workshops, and more.

Running from now through Nov 15, Khao San Hide and Seek highlights include colorful displays and light installations at eight spots along its main road and sois, created by seven designer studios, including Wire Knot Studios, A Millimetre, PVWB Studio, The Atelier 58, InFO, Cloud-floor, and Vawa Studio. Nearly 20 bands from Silpakorn University’s Faculty of Music will perform live while daytime and nighttime walking tours are offered on select dates. On the weekends, art studios will lead workshops offering everything from embroidering khon costumes and carving banana stalks to make khaotom nam woon (sticky rice wrapped in banana leaves).

The 10-day event is organized by the Khaosan Road Business Association, Bang Lamphu community, art studios and Silpakorn University students.
