In addition, the Tourism Authority of Thailand noted that those wishing to attend this music event can take buses, with several daily services to Phuket taking about 13 hours. Travelers planning to go by train must take a train to Phun Phin Station in Surat Thani Province and then transfer to a bus to Phuket. The most convenient option is to fly, which takes about 1.2 hours. There are many daily domestic flights from Bangkok to Phuket, with some flights making a 40-minute stop in Samui before continuing to Phuket.
