A riverside stroll gets a creative twist at the Art Island Festival, where artists, musicians and independent makers take over a stretch of the Chao Phraya for the weekend. Browse stalls filled with original artwork, handmade goods and limited-run pieces, then join a workshop and make something of your own. Between activities, settle by the water with a drink and watch ferries and longtail boats pass as the afternoon drifts by. After dark, DJs take over a moored boat with an open-air psytrance set that keeps the riverfront busy well into the evening.
July 5. Free entry. Bangkok Island. 4pm-11.59pm
