Catch Sarawak's Rainforest World Music Festival from June 17 to 19

 


KUALA LUMPUR:  Malaysia's long-running Rainforest World Music Festival (RWMF) will entertain fans as a hybrid event for the first time from June 17 to 19 as it celebrates its 25th anniversary.

The three-day music festival, themed "Legendary Rainforest Celebration", is set to take place at the Sarawak Cultural Village in Santubong, Sarawak.

Fans can also catch the concert from the comfort of their homes via livestreaming of the various performances.

The latest edition of RWMF will feature a myriad of performances by global artistes from Canada, India, USA, Finland, Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, Singapore, Japan, Australia, Mexico, New Zealand, China, Bhutan and Seoul among others.

This year will also showcase the mixing of traditional Sarawakian music with international flavours during the opening showcase courtesy of Majlis Seni Sarawak in a first-time musical collaboration with Sarawak Tourism Board.

The Rainforest World Music Festival 2022 will also feature the sounds and rhythms of Sarawak, showcasing musical elements from the diverse ethnic groups of Sarawak through local artistes such as Alena Murang, At Adau, Bamboo Woods, Fauziah Gambus & The Geng, Rining Peter Paris, Hayree Hashim and more.

From humble beginnings back in 1998 with only 300 audience members in attendance, the RWMF is the result of the tireless efforts of the Sarawak Tourism Board to keep the festival fresh and relevant over the years.
