Lanna Folklife Centre

R∀P CON is the latest thing to hit the Chiang Mai’s burgeoning rap scene, this time bringing together artists from Chiang Mai, Bangkok and neighbouring communities for a hip-hop gathering rooted in storytelling. Names like DJ Babyscash, Boxing Rhyme, Triple Edge FM are just a few, performing alongside rappers Elevenfinger, 3BONE, OLDNEW and ISSARA. The focus is on real voices and lived experiences, with performances tailored to the show, telling tales of everyday life, social realities and the power of shared narratives. While the odd rap battle may emerge, the event is designed to be open, inclusive and free to attend – a hip-hop cultural meeting point that’s a must for any Thai rap fan.    Jan 24. Free. Lanna Folklife Centre. 5pm-10pm
