Artbox Bangkok

Artbox Bangkok is back at Chatuchak from now until 30 April 2017!

You would have known or heard about Artbox Bangkok by now. But if you haven’t, it is actually a pop-up market that is housed within giant metal containers.

The charm of Artbox Bangkok lies in its hipster factor, of course—from its containers to the design of each stall to the merchandise and snacks, Artbox Bangkok is like the future of Singapore’s ‘Pasar Malam’. And they focus a lot on local designers, affordable vintage fashion, quirky lifestyle products, modern home decor items and innovative snacks.

The pop-up market changes location once every few months, and its current location is at Chatuchak (just across the road from the popular Chatuchak Weekend Market), where it will be there every Friday to Sunday.

Here are the highlights of Artbox Bangkok at Chatuchak.
