It’s almost here, and we really don’t want you to miss out on our only Public Sale. Wonderfruit 2023: The Private Sale closed early due to overwhelming demand, and should we reach capacity in the Public Sale, it’ll close early too. Here’s everything you need to know to make sure you get tickets to Wonderfruit 2023: What you’ll get:  A Full Pass for USD 260* (THB 8,900), gets you access to all five days in The Fields. It’s also important to note that At-Door prices in 2023 will be USD 600* (THB 20,000) if there’s availability. Every registered e-mail can buy up to four (4) tickets in this sale. * Prices are subject to FX fluctuations When this happens: Tomorrow! The 72-hour Public Sale starts on Wednesday 14 June at 6pm BKK (GMT+7) and runs until Saturday 17 June at 6pm BKK (GMT+7)—or until capacity is reached, whichever happens first. While supplies last: Tickets are available strictly on a first-come, first-served basis and are limited in quantity. We’re doing this because attendance in The Fields is capped this year, which means the number of tickets available in each sale is fixed. We recommend that you move fast once the Public Sale opens because it will close if capacity is reached. You should know, we held a Private Sale last week, and it sold out in 24 hours. You get more: This year, you can package your Full Pass with 50% off a Wonder Cup! Last year, we sent zero waste to landfills. Our single-use plastics ban is a big contributor to reducing waste at Wonderfruit. This means that every Wonderer needs their own cup, and with that cup, you also get free, filtered water at refill stations peppered across The Fields. This year, every ticket purchased in the Public Sale can purchase a Wonder Cup at 50% off. That’s THB 325 instead of THB 650. What the Off-Menu is all about: We believe Wonderfruit is meant to be a shared experience with loved ones, so we’ve created a special ticket. These will be available in the first 48 hours—or until capacity is reached. DM us if you’re a previous Wonderer. Not sure of your Wonderfruit plans? We know planning for an event six months away is scary, especially for Wonderers who fly in from around the world—because sometimes life happens and plans change. After seeing extreme price gouging and all the fraudulent tickets circulated last year, we want to fix this for everyone and are introducing the Wonder Market. It’s an easy, safe and convenient way to resell tickets at their original face value. Read more about it here. Save the link HERE, mark your calendars, set your alarms; it’s almost go time. Please note: Over the last couple of days, we’ve engaged with so many of you across our channels and have heard what you’ve had to say. We understand that coming to Wonderfruit takes a lot of planning, especially for those from around the world, and sometimes, those plans change. And with just one Private and Public Sale happening this year, we want you to buy a ticket with confidence, knowing that if you can’t make it, you can safely pass your ticket on. The need for a secure ticket reselling process has become even more crucial due to the unprecedented amount of fake tickets we witnessed last year. These fraudulent tickets led to distressing scenarios where individuals were denied entry at the gate, an experience we are determined to prevent this time around. We also observed unscrupulous resellers taking advantage of the situation by inflating ticket prices well beyond their original value. Let us be clear: such practices are entirely contrary to the Wonderfruit way. And we want to put a stop to that. Simply put, making a profit on Wonderfruit tickets is not cool. Scalpers are not cool. And getting rejected at the gate is not cool. We want people who want to come to Wonderfruit to be at Wonderfruit. That’s why we’re introducing Wonder Market, a platform designed to offer Wonderers a convenient and secure means to resell or transfer their tickets. The market operates on trust and goodwill, with Wonderers making agreements directly with each other, ensuring that only authentic tickets purchased from official Wonderfruit channels find their way into the hands of fellow Wonderers. We firmly discourage price gouging and want to encourage tickets being resold at the price they were purchased. Ahead of our Private and Public Sale, we want to assure you that Wonderers will have a reliable space to resell or transfer tickets at their original face value. We hope this flexibility gives you some reassurance and puts your planning at ease because we all know how unpredictable life can be. The Wonder Market is set to launch at the end of July 2023. Notes:  Prices in USD are subject to FX fluctuations. Payments are made in THB.  Off-Menu codes have been sent to some Wonderers’ emails. If you haven’t received it and believe you should, DM us on Instagram, Facebook or send us an email at info@wonderfruit.co.  The Public Sale is capped and will close early should it sell out.
