The announcement of Good Vibes’ return as Good Vibes Weekender comes as a surprise as there was no tease that the festival would be held this year in any form.

The last edition of the Good Vibes Festival took place in 2019 and featured Yuna, Cigarettes After Sex, Daniel Caesar and more in a two-day affair that took place at The Ranch in Gohtong Jaya, Genting Highlands. The long-running festival has hosted international acts like The 1975, Lorde, Honne and more playing alongside a host of local and regional talent including Altimet, Kyoto Protocol, Dangerdisko, Emir Hermono and Alextbh.

Good Vibes Weekender organisers Future Sound Asia previously announced American rapper Russ‘ Malaysia concert on his ‘The Journey Is Everything’ world tour, which is set to take place this November 3.

Good Vibes Weekender represents the second large-scale festival to be announced in Malaysia since the lifting of social distancing and public health measures implemented in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic and joins Sarawak’s Sunbear Festival, which was announced earlier this month. A slew of concerts have already been announced in Malaysia by international artists returning to the region including Justin Bieber, Boy Pablo and LANY.
