The two-day musical feast is the 3rd instalment of the festival and returns with a renewed vengeance, featuring an extensive lineup of international and local artists – some of whom who have never performed in Malaysia before. 

Headliners of the event on the indie side include indie-rock favourites The 1975, Australian indie mainstay The Temper Trap, electronic indie DJ Ryan Hemsworth, indie folk duo Angus & Julia Stone and Irish indie-dance trio Two Door Cinema Club.
