Three weeks ago, Urbanscapes teased fans that they will be returning again this year for their 15^th installment (yes, believe it or not, Urbanscapes have been around for a while now).

Your favourite creative arts festival is set to kick off on May 5^th and will end on May 21^st.

As fans waited in anticipation and speculated about the acts Urbanscapes will bring in this year, they finally dropped one of their biggest updates on Tuesday: the first wave of lineup.

So far, international acts such as Clean Bandit and Mew are headlining the festival, accompanied by a few unique acts across the Southeast Asian region.

If you’re wondering if there will be any acts from our local pool, don’t worry, as The Venopian Solitude, Swims, and Lust, are among the few who will be performing.

Music aside, there will also be a photography exhibition by This is Kuala Lumpur.

Following the announcement, fans have expressed their interest and disappointment in this year’s lineup via Twitter.
 

Urbanscapes punya lineup not my cuppa tea. Well except for Mew and The Venopian Solitude and maybe Clean Bandit. But nah.
