George Town Festival will be held 02 to 10 Aug 2025 in George Town, Malaysia. George Town Festival is an exciting month-long celebration of local art, music, theatre, dance, and film in Penang. The event started back in 2008 as a series of arts and cultural events to commemorate Georgetown’s listing as a UNESCO Heritage Site before becoming one of Malaysia’s most high-anticipated cultural events of the year. For the entire month of August, the festival allows visitors to enjoy a diverse range of shows and attractions exploring Georgetown’s well-preserved heritage buildings and colourful street arts. There are also hundreds of booths selling Penang’s well-loved delicacies and snacks as well as local artwork, books, trinkets and souvenirs. With venues ranging from auditoriums and sidewalk galleries to five-foot alleyways and colonial shophouses, George Town Festival hosts curated collaborations, experimental art shows, traditional dance performances, theatre and opera, live bands and poetry readings, community activities and public space installations. George Town Festival is an event and I like events...
