Get ready music fans! The ROUND Music Festival is finally landing in Malaysia this June!
Known as the official name and brand of the ASEAN-Korea Music Festival project, ROUND was launched in 2020 by the ASEAN-Korea Cooperation Fund to promote cultural exchange between South Korea and ASEAN countries. According to their website, “ROUND stands for ‘equal ASEAN countries and Korea’ and will provide an opportunity for us to get closer in music.”
Five years since its debut, Malaysia finally gets a turn at this musical extravaganza. The festival is happening on June 21 and 22 in Kuala Lumpur. More details such as venue, ticket prices, and artist lineup will be announced in the coming weeks, so stay tuned!
What To Expect?
ROUND Music Festival aims to unite music fans in the region with spectacular live stages and memorable performances. Its first two editions were online shows due to the global pandemic but it has since evolved into a massive in-person event. The first offline edition was held in Jakarta and featured a lineup of popular Asian artists including P-Pop sensation SB19 and Indonesian singer Pamungkas.
Two festivals were held in 2024, one in South Korea which featured artists like Jaurim’s Kim Yuna, Television Off from Thailand, and Vietnamese pop artist Tien Tien. Later in November, the festival landed in Lao PDR where GOT7 member BamBam took to the stage as host and performed alongside Singapore’s Club Mild, Bunny Phyoe from Myanmar, and Rizal Rasid from Brunei.
Based on the previous performers, fans can expect a diverse setlist highlighting the countries involved. Which artist are you hoping to see?
