    Goodhood returns for its sixth year with the kind of energy that turns a regular weekend into a small adventure. The market has become a familiar fixture by now, pulling together fashion labels, lifestyle stalls and those online favourites you usually only scroll past at midnight. Everything lands under one roof with limited runs, playful collaborations and the odd promotion that feels like a quiet win. Music keeps the whole affair from slipping into a simple shopping trip. Mini concerts pop up through the day with Tilly Birds, Polycat, Pun, Youngohm and The Parkinson holding court, plus a few surprise names that always seem to appear just when you think you have seen it all. It is the sort of event where you wander in for a look and somehow stay long enough to forget what time you arrived. December 4-7. B200 via here and B250 at the door. Sermsuk Warehouse, 3pm-midnight

    December rolls around and Suan Luang Rama IX shifts character, almost as if someone quietly swapped its everyday calm for colour and movement. The botanical festival settles in again, filling the park with stalls stacked with greenery and blooms that look far pricier than they are, which helps when trekking across town feels like a heroic act you simply cannot face. Regulars treat it like a gentle homecoming. Families from Prawet stroll the grounds in matching weekend finery, greeting familiar faces as if the whole district planned to meet at the same bench. People from Samut Prakan turn up with well prepared enthusiasm, often arriving before the sun remembers its job, ready to spend the day wandering, chatting and pretending life can be measured in petals and shade rather than deadlines and traffic. December 1-10. B20. Suan Luang Rama IX, 8am-7pm

    Kitikong Tilokwattanotai’s latest exhibition feels like a conversation across centuries. The artist revisits one of humanity’s earliest canvases, goat parchment, a medium that once held the first flickers of human thought and record. By working with this ancient material, Kitikong bridges the gap between the ancient and the contemporary, layering centuries-old craft with modern printmaking. Etching, one of the oldest printmaking techniques, guides the series. Each incision on the plate negotiates between control and chance, a subtle  dialogue between hand and surface. When transferred onto parchment, the prints carry a quiet tension, permanence brushing against fragility, memory pressed into form. The work lingers somewhere between past and present, inviting viewers to trace the line where history, material, and imagination meet. Until February 6 2026. Free. Archives Design, 11am-6pm

    Flying Whale gathers seven artists and illustrators for a show that feels like a gentle exhale in a season usually obsessed with glitter and performance. Tum Ulit, faan.peeti, katangg, 2an, May&Clay, Pou Rawiwan and PYH bring fresh pieces shaped by distinct lines and quiet emotional weight, each one building a small world that speaks without fuss. The spark for the exhibition comes from a question many of us try to dodge. In a world addicted to speed and endless self-proof, do we ever get a moment to step back and look at life without treating it like a scoreboard? Beyond Festivity treats Christmas less as spectacle and more as a pause. A pocket of warmth, longing or peace. A brief reminder that feeling alive can be simple and honestly quite soft. Until December 14. Free. 5/F, Central Pinklao, 10am-10pm

    Bangkok’s streets move at their own rhythm, a blend of chaos, charm and ritual that caught the eye of London-based photographer Barry Macdonald. Fascinated by the wai, he began to see it not merely as a greeting but as a cultural language, layered with subtlety and history. His project Sawadee captures this gesture across the city, exploring what it communicates and how it adapts to modern life. In the exhibition, the wai appears in surprising contexts: marking social hierarchy between friends, elders and monks, performing in muay Thai or khon, offering comfort in massage parlours, or appearing in mascots, public signs and LINE stickers. Even as younger generations use it less, the wai remains a quietly potent emblem, a gesture instantly recognisable and deeply entwined with Thai identity. Until December 14 2026. Free. Palette Art Space, 4pm-9pm

    KYLA Gallery's latest gathering brings together five artists who've each built entire universes around their original characters. The Character Club transforms the gallery space into a proper social hangout for creations that exist somewhere between cartoon boldness, quirky personality studies and those dreamlike companions who feel weirdly familiar even though you've definitely never met them before. Each artist speaks through their own visual language and storytelling approach, creating what's essentially a lively lounge filled with humour, nostalgia and genuine wonder. It's playful, pop-culture-soaked and refreshingly unpretentious about celebrating imagination in all its human (and decidedly not-so-human) forms. Every character here carries their own backstory, waiting for you to wander over and strike up a conversation. November 7-December 7. Free. KYLA Gallery, 3pm-midnight

    Arin Rungjang's solo project starts with Thong Yod – those traditional Thai golden drops – and spins them through sculpture and film until they become something altogether more questioning. What begins as dessert transforms into a meditation on how we remember, how culture shifts and how history's so-called truths often deserve a proper interrogation. Golden teardrops hang suspended like falling rain throughout the exhibition, whilst stories from distant lands flow together in ways that blur boundaries between past and present. It's essentially about the fluidity of narrative – how memories from different eras can suddenly converge and reshape our understanding of what actually happened. Rungjang's work asks you to reconsider the weight of time itself, using something as humble as a sweet treat to unlock bigger questions about cultural inheritance and collective memory.  Until February 15, 2026. B300 at the door. MOCA Bangkok, 10am-6pm

    Pnk.ff's second solo exhibition celebrates everything we usually try to sweep under the rug – the fumbles, the messes, the moments when life doesn't quite go to plan. Rather than hiding these beautifully awkward bits of being human, the artist drags them out and gives them proper gallery treatment. What you'll find here are personal, clumsy snapshots transformed through playful and humorous artworks that feel refreshingly honest. It's essentially an invitation to laugh at your own stumbles whilst recognizing that these wonky moments are what make ordinary stories genuinely memorable. Because let's be real, some days simply refuse to go smoothly, and often it's precisely those off-kilter experiences that stick with us longest. Until December 27. Free. KICH Ari Space, midday-7pm

    PLAY art house and Rosewood Bangkok have teamed up for their first artistic collaboration, shining a spotlight on Song Wat Road through the eyes of local creators. This exhibition peels back the layers of one of the city's most storied neighbourhoods, where century-old shophouses sit alongside slick new cafes. It brings together artists working across different styles and media, each capturing the peculiar magic of this never-sleeping street. You'll find pieces inspired by everything from the cracks in ancient tiles to chance encounters outside family-run businesses that have been serving the same customers for generations. It's essentially a love letter to Song Wat Road's beautiful contradictions – the way trendy cocktail bars nestle beside traditional Chinese medicine shops, and how morning market chaos gives way to evening temple rituals. Proper neighbourhood storytelling at its finest. Until January 11, 2026.  3/F, Rosewood Bangkok, The Gallery, 9am-9pm

    The Suicide Squad

    Release date: October 1

    Don’t confuse this with the critically-panned 2016 attempt at giving life to a troop of crazy DC supervillains back in 2016. The Suicide Squad (as opposed to just “Suicide Squad”) is the sequel-slash-reboot, as well as an ambitious undertaking to overshadow the reputation of the original incarnation. It’s directed by James Gunn (you know, of Marvel’s Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy fame), so it would be interesting to see how the movie pans out.
