On your mark, get set and rock-away! Rockaway Festival is back for the third time in Kuala Lumpur, bigger, better and edgier than ever! So get your rock on for TM presents Rockaway Festival 2012 brought to you by Livescape Asia.
This year’s inaugural festival is set to take place at the Helipad located in Sepang International Circuit on 20th October 2012. The date is perfectly timed as it coincides with the Moto GP race weekend. Rockaway this year officially collaborates with SIC organisers of Moto GP, a first venture for both companies.
After what it seems like an eternity of waiting, Livescape is finally ready to reveal their method for moshpit mayhem. Taking a few notches up from last year’s line-up, Rockaway Festival 2012 sets to feature an excitingly interesting line up. This year’s offering includes legendary metal masters led by the incomparable Max Cavalera, Soulfly, punk phenomenon, MxPx All Stars and metalcore sensation, Unearth.
On the local forefront, Malaysia’s rock scene heavyweights, Hujan, Love Me Butch and Massacre Conspiracy return with tons of new material to showcase. Joining them are the highly popular Bunkface, I, Revival, The Padangs, Go Gerila, and Twilight Actiongirl.
The list of performers does not end here. Rockaway Festival has more surprises to be revealed in September.
Fans and friends can expect a lot more activities within the festival grounds, especially with the addition of a second stage that will feature acts from The WKND Sessions. The WKND Sessions are stripped down music showcases that cover indie music all around. At Rockaway Festival, they will have their own tent to showcase various acts in one roof. We’re also bringing our Rock Cinema back this year and patrons will also get to entertain themselves with a lot of games and activations as well as our famous Food Village.
