Abstract

The article focuses on the Rainforest World Music Festival (RWMF) 2025, a three-day event held from June 20 to 22 at the Sarawak Cultural Village on the Santubong Peninsula in Sarawak, Malaysia. Celebrating cultural diversity and sustainability, the festival features 170 performers from 20 countries, including local Sarawakian artists such as At Adau, the first from the region to headline the event. Organized by the Sarawak Tourism Board, RWMF emphasizes eco-conscious initiatives like tree planting to offset carbon emissions and offers interactive workshops, traditional crafts, and local cuisine alongside its diverse musical program. The festival aims to attract 30,000 visitors in 2025, building on its reputation as a unique cultural and environmental experience set within Borneo’s tropical rainforest.
