There’s another market to look forward to this year, and this one's got a bit more going for it than your usual weekend browse.


MEK Music and Market lands at Cloud 11 from March 13 to 15, taking over Bangkok's biggest rooftop park for three days of independent brands, live music and creative types mingling about. The 16,000 square metres space becomes what the organisers call a Cultural Floor, which basically means film people, fashion makers, designers and musicians all show up in one place.

Cloud 11 and the Looker team have picked out independent creators and emerging designers across fashion, design and various other creative corners, so you're not just wandering through endless stalls of the same old stuff.

What makes it particularly nice is you're doing all this in an actual park. The green space sits right in the heart of Bangkok, and they've made it pet-friendly too, so your dog gets a day out as well.

Everything runs from 3pm to 11pm each day, which gives you plenty of time once the heat backs off. Getting there is easy on the BTS to Punnawithi, exit 6.

 

MEK Music and Market, March 13-15, 3pm-11pm. Cloud11 Bangkok.
