Urbanscapes 2012: The Full Story

Oh, yes. We’ve talked about this one before. But we’re back with more information this time on celebrating the 10th anniversary of Urbanscapes (Malaysia’s leading creative arts festival) with two days of music, creative projects, and installations on 24th November (Saturday) and 25th November (Sunday) 2012.

So mark your calendar for another important milestone in the evolving history of Malaysia!

For the first time, Urbanscapes will be hosting both regional and international artistes, including anthemic Icelandic sensations, Sigur Rós, who will be closing the epic two-day festival on Sunday night with a full concert. Ah. The best 10th birthday present, no?

But let’s not only talk about the closing – Urbanscapes 2012 will see a rabble raising homecoming set from our very own Malaysian darilng, Yuna. Just as well, since she’s on her homecoming tour anyway.
