SANTA MONICA, CA, UNITED STATES, August 28, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ — The Thai Fest by the Beach will return to the Santa Monica Pier on September 20–21, 2025, bringing two days of cultural performances, authentic cuisine, and community celebration to one of California’s most iconic landmarks.
Now in its third year, Thai Fest by the Beach welcomed more than 30,000 attendees in 2024 and returns in 2025 with an even larger cultural showcase. As the first and only Thai festival by the beach in the United States, the event is organized by Buddy Production and Thaitivity in collaboration with the City of Santa Monica, with support from Thai government agencies including the Royal Thai Consulate-General in Los Angeles, the Thai Trade Center USA, and the Tourism Authority of Thailand.
The 2025 festival will highlight a rich array of Thai cultural experiences—including regional food vendors, traditional and contemporary performances, wellness offerings such as Thai massage, and handcrafted artisan goods. Beyond its community celebration, the festival also serves as a platform for international exchange. Through a shared commitment to diplomacy and public engagement, the Royal Thai Consulate-General in Los Angeles, the Thai Trade Center USA, the Thailand Office of Agricultural Affairs, Tourism Authority of Thailand, and the City of Santa Monica continue to support the festival’s vision of strengthening ties between Thailand and the United States.
“Thai Fest by the Beach brings together people of all backgrounds to experience the richness of Thai culture,” said event organizers. “The strong turnout over the past two years reflects the community’s enthusiasm for cultural exchange, and we look forward to welcoming even more attendees in 2025.”
Admission is free and open to the public.
