George Town Festival 2016 in Butterworth ! : Butterworth Fringe Festival
September 01, 2016Since it located in Butterworth, This year I had an opportunity to attend Butterworth Fringe Festival (BFF) as a part of Georgetown Festival (GTF) .
Butterworth Fringe Festival (BFF) are organize in 13- 14 August 2016 and it is located at Jalan Jeti Lama, Butterworth, I think the location are very strategic, near to Jetty and lots of space in addition the place are still have the originality of Penang old building.
Some of the highlights are from JinnyBoy , Australian Anthony from Livingspace, Spaniards Miguel and Nelly , DynaMike from Canada, Jamil Zakaria , Kata-Kata 2100, Hamid Khan band, Manora of Kelantan& Urumee Melum.
Because I only came for a one day, I miss some of the performance. But overal, it's a succesfull event in Butterworth !
Here are some of the photos that I manage to capture.
