Rainforest World Music Festival is back.
At our own backyard, Sarawak Cultural Village, Santubong.
This is the 17th year! It is a unique festival that bring together world musicians all over the world - continents and indigenous musicians.

Last year RWMF with bloggers of Sarawak Bloggers...... chubby nyer aku!!!

I went for the first time last year with other blogger fellows of Sarawak Blogger.  We were given 3 days passes and to instagram, tweet and blog about about the festival. This year I give it a pass but I will be going for this great event with my colleagues on Saturday.

We shall shake our bon bon during the workshop at Dewan Lagenda, then continue with the newly introduced 'drum circle' from 5 - 6pm.  The concert will be in the evening, from 7.30 till midnight. Yes... this year am gonna stay for the concert that Saturday nite.

The crowd during the concert at night.

Let loose and enjoy ourselves!
