If you’re still looking for something to do this weekend, consider attending this arts festival, where you can see dance performances, live music, and art exhibitions.

The Yayasan Sime Darby Arts Festival (YSDAF) 2023 is back after a five-year hiatus for Malaysians to celebrate our local art scene.

Over 1,000 artistes will showcase their work at the weekend festival
