The 2-day showcase festival will feature performances by the likes of award-winning Indonesian multi-instrumentalist, Isyana Sarasvati, Jakarta-based power–pop trio, GAC, Indonesian indie-pop star Hindia, and singer-songwriter Nadin Amizah. Malaysian acts such as indie rock band Hujan, R&B singer Yuji, and rap-rock group Pop Shuvit are also on the lineup, alongside K-hip-hop act artists OWEN and MARV.

Taking place at the Tumbalong Park Stage, the free-entry event will kick off at 1 PM local time each day, with festivities wrapping up at 7:30 PM local time.
