MuseArt Chiang Mai Festival 2026 is a boutique international festival celebrating world-class music, contemporary art, music education and community engagement across some of Chiang Mai’s most iconic venues.

Taking place from 10–13 December 2026, the Festival brings together international musicians, distinguished Thai artists, emerging performers and local creative communities. It is expected to generate approximately 3,000 visitor attendances over four days, attracting audiences from Chiang Mai, Bangkok and international destinations.

The Festival will support local hotels, restaurants, retailers, artisans, transport providers and cultural venues. Aligned with Chiang Mai Festival City Design Week, it adds an international music and cultural dimension to the city’s annual celebration of creativity and supports longer, more meaningful visitor engagement.

A central feature is the Virtuoso Academy Masterclass Series, which gives talented young Thai musicians opportunities to learn, perform and develop alongside leading Thai and international artists.

Across four days, audiences will enjoy:

• International chamber music performances
• Jazz, tango, live film music and genre-crossing performances
• Virtuoso Academy Masterclasses open to the public
• The Artisan Fair, celebrating Chiang Mai’s creative community
• Pre-concert talks and artist engagement

MuseArt aims to establish an annual cultural platform that brings artistic excellence, music education and international cultural exchange to Chiang Mai.
