In a statement, Naoki Shimizu, CEO of Creativeman shares: "And as another challenge for 2024, Summer Sonic will finally go overseas. It will be held in Bangkok, Thailand, the following week after Tokyo and Osaka, on August 24th and 25th. In this era when overseas festivals have spread to various regions and succeeded, and Korean artists are active all over the world, Summer Sonic Bangkok will start as a means to connect the world with music from Japan. We will aim for a more attractive and powerful lineup by booking great artists in both countries. Please look forward to seeing if this light will spread to other countries."

Summer Sonic Bangok is the second overseas version of the Japanese music festival, following 2017's Summer Sonic Shanghai.

Summer Sonic 2024 in Japan is happening on 17 August (Tokyo) and 18 August (Osaka).
