“What a stellar lineup! But what else is different about Good Vibes Weekender?”
Good question! For those who are unaware, Good Vibes Weekender is the first festival experience of its kind which is totally different from the Good Vibes Festival that Malaysians have come to know and love! Here’s why!:
New year, new venue, same Good Vibes!
All good festivals need a good venue and that’s why the Weekender is going to take place at the Surf Beach in Sunway Lagoon! As one of the most famous man-made beaches in Malaysia, concertgoers can choose to sunbathe on the sand while vibing to the music, or just go ahead and dip their feet in the water and party hard with everyone else to the super-hyped musical performances! Don’t forget to snap some summer/beach-style OOTDs while you’re at it!
Good Vibes Weekender is the first ever city festival under the Good Vibes brand.
As the first Good Vibes Weekender of its kind, this is the first festival experience under the Good Vibes brand that is held in the city to reintroduce festival life back to KL’s music scene! Set in Sunway Lagoon, Good Vibes Weekender is bringing the best of music and parties closer to the city!
And another great part about Good Vibes Weekender being closer to the city is that it is much easier to travel to! Under smooth traffic conditions, it’s only a 15-minute drive away from KL and is accessible via numerous highways throughout Klang Valley! And if you don’t wanna drive, then just opt for public transport which is easily accessible in Sunway City!

Two days of Good Vibes Weekender = Twice the fun!
You know what’s better than a whole day of partying? TWO whole days of partying, that’s what! The Weekender is also the first city festival under Good Vibes to take place over two days instead of just one! “Two is better than one”, as they always say! So imagine how much out-of-this-world partying you can get over the course of two days!
So prepare yourself for a fun weekend filled with star-studded performances, spectacular music and most importantly, good vibes from Good Vibes Weekender this September!
