This year’s edition of the festival places extra emphasis on Asia’s indelible food culture with exclusive forward-thinking dishes inspired by flavours from across the region and a diverse range of beverages via the festival’s curated Beer Village.
This iteration’s performers include 🇲🇾 Malaysia’s cultural icons Masdo and Zamaera, renowned lyrical storyteller Taba Chake from 🇮🇳 India, feel-good alt-rock band Helsinki Lambda Club from 🇯🇵 Japan, and many more.
The festival is now operating on a pay-cos-you-want system with a 250% tax-deduction for donations over SGD 100 through its charity partner FOUNDATION MUSIC, in the hopes of making the festival accessible to as many people as possible.
Donations from the public allow the independent festival to continue its annual efforts to elevate the best music in the ASEAN region, accelerating the artists’ careers and launching them on a global stage.
Music Showcase
Apart from Singapore-based organizations, France will be the first European country invited to present an artist – Sūn Jùn, a young French emerging musician, composer, and producer.
The Embassy of France will also run a dedicated activation space to promote French music industry initiatives in Asia, where festival goers will be invited to discover French sounds throughout the broadcasting of What the France music playlists and to meet and exchange with French music experts and companies based in Asia.
