Remember when indie festivals meant spending an entire day sprinting between stages, sweating through your shirt and accidentally discovering your next favourite band? Bangkok's music crowd gets that hit again this July as Colorists Music Festival returns for its fifth edition, taking over UNION HALL with a stacked line-up across two stages.

Four years in and the festival comes back bigger, louder and far more ambitious. Organisers What The Duck and H.U.I. Team Design sharpen the production this time around, with a booking list that swings comfortably between established names and newer acts still quietly gathering cult status through late-night playlists and packed club gigs.

Expect singalong moments from Polycat, dreamy melancholy from Safeplanet and polished pop-rock theatrics courtesy of The Parkinson. Purpeech, Dept and Mirrr bring softer moods before veterans Silly Fools inevitably turn the volume right back up. Whal & Dolph, UrboyTJ, Yented, Yonlapa, Cornboi, Television Off, Ayla's, WAV, Loserpop, Pami and Pae Arak round out a bill that leaves very little room to breathe.

Colorists Music Festival 5 lands on July 4 at UNION HALL. Tickets are B1,500 with no extra fees. 

Pre-sale kicks off May 29 at 10am via TrueMoney only, with general sale opening May 30 through Eventpop.
