Korat International Festival 2025 Invitation

1. Participation Information

We warmly invite folk ensembles, choral groups, orchestras, brass bands, majorette teams, vocal groups, art schools, and performers (children, youth, and adult groups) to join the Korat International Festival, from 8-13 February 2025, in Bangkok and Korat, Thailand.
