Are you ready for the Rainforest World Music Festival 2023? This year is going to be bigger and better than the previous year. RWMF2023, called in short, will take place at the same venue at the Sarawak Cultural Village, one hour from Kuching and from 23-25 June.

And, if you did not know, this is also the 26th year that the RWMF is taking place, and as always, visitors will be treated to a spectacular show like no other concert or festival.

The unique and fascinating Miring Ceremony was performed to officiate the RWMF.

The Rainforest World Music Festival is truly one of the most unique music festivals in the world, and it is held in Sarawak, Malaysia, Borneo.

While the dates have been announced since 2022, this article reminds everyone to start making travel and accommodation arrangements now. June is just around the corner, and at the snap of your finger, it will be time to start preparing for RWMF2023.

Why Start Preparing for RWMF 2023?

Every year, I encounter friends and acquaintances who always say they want to visit the festival but never book in advance, and usually, they will be reminded by me, and it is too late then.

This time, I’m publishing the article early in the year to remind you to start making travel arrangements for the Rainforest World Music Festival 2023. As the dates for the event are locked, you can start looking at flights to Kuching, and you should know by now that if you book in advance, you tend to get lower prices.

Of course, AirAsia, Malaysia Airlines, Batik Air, and Firefly Airlines fly to Kuching from Kuala Lumpur and several other cities. Some international airlines also fly into Kuching, including Scoot from Singapore. The Sarawak government is also working on bringing in more international flights.

For RWMF 2023, you can expect a crowd like the last year.

What to do at the Rainforest World Music Festival?

While the entire RWMF revolves around ethnic-fusion music and a diverse cultural experience, some may wonder what else can be done here.

Do not worry. I have created an article on things to do at the Rainforest World Music Festival so you can better understand how to plan your trip there.

Conclusion to Rainforest World Music Festival 2023

That’s all for now; in the coming months, I will update this article with more information on the Rainforest World Music Festival 2023 as it is gradually shared.

And again, for those who want to visit this one-of-a-kind festival, start making early inquiries or bookings for your flights and hotels. You should know that the closer you get to the festival, the higher the chances of rooms being sold out or flights getting expensive.
