Bangkok rarely encourages you to slow down, which is probably why weekends spent sitting on grass suddenly feel wildly appealing. This May, The Field Society takes over Happitat at The Forestias in Bangna, turning the leafy space around for a couple of weekend escape.

More than 80 vendors will spread across the lawns and shaded walkways, covering everything from handmade crafts and independent clothing labels to home décor, coffee and comfort food. Easy-listening DJs soundtrack the day while visitors stretch out on picnic blankets beneath the trees or drift between stalls at whatever pace suits.

What sets The Field Society apart from your average market is  its quiet rejection of Bangkok's usual weekend routine. Instead of air-conditioned malls and endless screen time, you get a few slower hours spent eating well, chatting with friends and pretending your inbox does not exist. The appeal speaks for itself.

The event takes place at Happitat's Festie Town Buildings and  Forest at The Forestias on Bangna-Trad Road across May 23-24 and May 30-31, 2026. Entry free, though advance registration is required. Register here.
