The “World Music Festival 2008 – Penang” will be a total festive concept as there will be no chairs set up in rigid formality. The whole area will be like a friendly picnic ground where people can sit or recline on the grass, walk about or join the party crowd on their feet, right in front of the stage. It will be an outdoor festival complete with the night sky, evening breezes, surrounded by green foliage and smiled upon benevolently by the old quarry cliffs of Penang Hill. By day, it is inviting and peaceful. By night, it is heady romance.

Food stalls will be set up to cater for the crowd in the evening. There will also be ample public washrooms situated at the site and mobile ones for the convenience of the audience.
