GMMTV has confirmed the return of its flagship fan celebration with LOVE OUT LOUD FAN FEST 2026: HEART RACE, a three-day live event set to gather some of the agency’s most recognisable on-screen pairings in Bangkok. Scheduled for 22–24 May 2026 at Impact Arena in Muang Thong Thani, the festival is positioned as one of the biggest gatherings yet for the studio’s global fan base, blending concert-scale performances with exclusive fan interaction sessions.
The announcement signals another major push by the Thai entertainment giant to strengthen its international fandom culture. Over the past few years, GMMTV productions—particularly its youth and BL dramas—have built strong followings across Asia and beyond, and fan festivals like this have become a key stage where those screen partnerships meet their audiences in person.
Among the confirmed duos is Earth Pirapat and Mix Sahaphap, whose long-standing partnership remains one of the studio’s most recognisable.
They will be joined by Boun Noppanut and Prem Warut, Pond Naravit and Phuwin Tangsakyuen, and Force Jiratchapong with Book Kasidet, all of whom have cultivated dedicated fan communities through recent drama projects.
The line-up stretches further across GMMTV’s current roster of pairings.
Fans can also expect appearances from Joong Archen and Dunk Natachai, Jimmy Jitaraphol and Sea Tawinan, First Kanaphan and Khaotung Thanawat, and the fast-rising duo Gemini Norawit and Fourth Nattawat.
Additional performers include Perth Tanapon and Santa Pongsapak, William Jakrapatr and Est Supha, Junior Panachai and Mark Pakin, as well as Joss Wayar and Gawin Caskey, rounding out a programme that highlights the breadth of the agency’s talent pool.
During the three-day festival, audiences will not only see stage performances but also a range of fan-focused activities.
Organisers have confirmed special benefits such as Sound Check sessions and Hi-Session interactions, designed to bring fans closer to the actors through controlled meet-and-greet moments.

Each show is scheduled to begin at 17:00 local time, with ticket prices ranging from 2,000 to 7,900 baht depending on seating category.
Early online ticket sales are set to open on 21 March 2026 at 10:00 Thailand time, followed by general sales beginning 22 March at 10:00.
For international audiences unable to travel to Bangkok, organisers say the festival will also be broadcast worldwide via TTM LIVE, allowing overseas fans to join the experience remotely.
Online reaction to the announcement has been swift and varied. Many fans welcomed the return of the event, praising the line-up for bringing together both established and newer pairings.
Supporters of GeminiFourth, PondPhuwin, and JoongDunk quickly pushed discussion threads across social media, while long-time followers of EarthMix and BounPrem described the festival as one of the most anticipated gatherings of the year.
At the same time, some fans are already debating seating demand and ticket availability, predicting that high-tier seats could sell out within minutes once sales open. Others have begun organising travel plans and fan projects in anticipation of the May event.
With months still to go before the first show, LOVE OUT LOUD FAN FEST 2026: HEART RACE is already shaping up as one of the biggest fan celebrations on the Thai drama calendar.
Which pairing are you most excited to see take the stage, and will you be watching in Bangkok or tuning in from abroad? The conversation has already started.
