SANTA MONICA, CA, UNITED STATES, August 29, 2025 /EINPresswire / -- The nation's only Thai cultural festival set against a beachside backdrop is back! Thai Fest by the Beach will once again take over the iconic Santa Monica Pier on September 20–21, 2025, with two full days of lively performances, authentic Thai street food, wellness offerings, and immersive cultural activities-all open to the public and free of charge.

Building on the momentum of its first two years-where attendance surpassed 30,000 in 2024-Thai Fest by the Beach returns in 2025 with an even more vibrant cultural experience. From traditional Thai dance and Muay Thai demos to wellness booths, handcrafted goods, and a curated selection of regional cuisine, the festival promises a dynamic immersion into the heart of Thai heritage.

This landmark event is proudly presented by Buddy Production and Thaitivity, in partnership with the City of Santa Monica. Continued support from the Royal Thai Consulate-General in Los Angeles, Thai Trade Center USA, Thailand Office of Agricultural Affairs, and the Tourism Authority of Thailand underscores the festival's diplomatic and cultural significance.

Through rich displays of Thailand's traditions-from food, music, and dance to wellness, fashion, and craftsmanship-Thai Fest by the Beach bridges communities and fosters deeper connections between Thai and American cultures. It's a space where celebration meets purpose, and where cultural pride sparks unity, understanding, and global appreciation.
