Hear some of the world’s finest contemporary artists at Soulfest Asia 2015 as Australia’s only Neo-Soul, Jazz and Hip-Hop festival makes its way down to Malaysia for the first time this year! Soulnation Asia Sdn Bhd is excited to announce the inaugural launch of Soulfest Asia. Revealing their first artist announcement at the Soulfest Asia press conference held at Beast by BIG, it’s time for discerning music lovers in the South East Asian region to rejoice!

This amazing urban music festival debuted in Australia and New Zealand last year in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Auckland. With Aloe Blacc, Common, Mos Def and D’Angelo as headliners, it comes as no surprise that its first appearance saw tens of thousands of music lovers come together peacefully to celebrate their passion for soul and hip-hop.

Soulfest is a boutique music festival and caters to fans of groove music who are tired of stuffy, hot, outdoor festivals and looking for a comfortable night of musical enjoyment. The vibe and ambience of Soulfest emulates the passionate rhythms attributed to Soul, R&B and Hip-Hop music that resonates with audiophiles looking to loosen up, cut a rug and unwind. Authentic soul food paired with musicians looking to simply have a good time, proves to be a winning combination for lovers of groove.

Besides good music and good vibes, Soulfest Asia will also feature an expansive array of tantalizing cuisine featuring authentic Soulfood and pop-up eateries created and curated by the BIG Group.

Soulfest Asia’s full line-up is a world exclusive under one billing. Soulfest Asia 2015 is organized by Soulfest International Private Limited (Australia) and Soul Nation Asia Sdn. Bhd. and is supported by Malaysia’s Ministry of Tourism and Culture.

The first edition of Soulfest Asia will be indoors and fully air-conditioned, taking place at the Mines International Convention Centre (MICC) on 17 October 2015. Come rain or shine, the festival is scheduled to kick off at 3pm with the rhythm flowing all the way to midnight. Tickets go on sale on Monday 17th August 2015 with prices from RM 198 via Air Asia Red Tix and Eventopia. Girlfriends hoping to let loose together can purchase 4 tickets for the price of 3 under the special Soul Sisters Package!
