Mark your calendars, everyone. Good Vibes Festival is finally making a comeback after a one-year absence this August!

Started in 2013, the outdoor music festival has brought some of the world's most established acts to Malaysian shores such as The Smashing Pumpkins, Ellie Goulding, Modest Mouse, and Empire of the Sun.

This year, #GoodVibesFest will be held on 12 and 13 August 2016 at its new, cooler home - The Ranch @ Gohtong Jaya in Genting Highlands

To make up for its absence last year, the 2016 edition will feature twice as many acts compared to its previous years. Headlining the two-day fest - current fan favourite The 1975, The Temper Trap, and Two Door Cinema Club.
