BORNEO JAZZ FESTIVAL IN MIRI

in #hive-1413592 years ago

Borneo Jazz Festival is back this year. I had an opportunity to just walk around and record the area surrounding. It is a yearly event where International Jazz singers come here to sing. However, due to the pandemic, it has stopped for two years but it's back. I did not buy any ticket to the concerts due to business. Lots of stuff to do if not I would have gotten a ticket to watch the concert. Anyways, this is what the place looks like.

I am @luueetang and I am from Miri, Sarawak, Malaysia. Today is a Thursday again. Hope that your happy and healthy.

COCO CABANA MIRI

Do check out my Vlog from my YouTube channel.

It was held at Coco Cabana from the 24th to 26th June 2022.

Tropical feeling

Coconut leaves. This is the entrance. There are many food stalls here as well as other stalls that sell clothes and other local products.

Santinos Pizza

I passed by with my GoPro and the staff were very welcoming.

Do you like Starbucks? A great place to have an ice cold coffee before watching any shows here.

A local tattoo artist

Who specialises in tribal art.

Tattoo here is done in the traditional way

Tapping the ink into the skin instead of machining it.

A coffee hut

A great place to chill and have a great time enjoying the day. Coco Cabana is next to the sapphire South China Sea. While your here, you can enjoy watching vessels come into Miri and out. As well as enjoy the sound waves of the ocean currents.

Some stalls selling drinks and chicken rice

I was just there for a short visit. Had a busy day.

Buildings that have that tropical resort vibe.

Some sand on the beach

Some sand left. There is a huge seahorse lighthouse here too. The top part used to be publicly accessible but now it is access denied.

Locally made t shirts.

The wooden house behind is actually made in the early 2000s and is kept that way to have that tropical feeling.

I guess these are beautiful. It depends on how you see it. =) Anyone who wears these shirts are really hip. I guess, that person has that fun personality.

Other stalls

At night was when everything becomes lively. I did not want to be there at night without a ticket. The traffic jam was going to be intense. With lots of people.

Some other stalls here

These stalls indirectly benefit from the event. Usually, weekends are already crowded. Imagine weekends and Borneo Jazz Festival combined.
Do check out my video to have look at what this place looks like. I recorded on my GoPro set at 5K uploaded to YouTube at 4K.

Have a great day. Do hope that your happy and healthy. Always stay happy.

I love jazz! I had no idea Borneo hosts jazz festivals. Maybe next year I'll be there at the right time to enjoy it.

Hi hi.. hahhaa.. this is a localized version with international acts.. jazz music is beautiful and soothing. Unfortunately this time I did not manage to get any video of the performance.. there used to be acapella group.
