SingaMalaya Festival

Overview

Mazy night markets across Southeast Asia set your senses alight with incredible aromas and boundless activity. You can experience the same vibe at North Melbourne's EziStreat with the SingaMalay Festival – a one-day event held on Sunday, February 23 featuring a curated selection of food vendors, live cultural performances and interactive experiences.

Celebrating hawker-style street food, culture and community, expect an array of much-loved dishes, like smoky satay skewers slathered in rich peanut sauce alongside the crispy goodness of prawn vadai. Plus, there's no shortage of sweet treats, like apam balik pancakes, soy milk puddings, peanut kueh and much more. Throughout the day, DJs will keep the atmosphere turned up by spinning Singaporean and Malaysian tunes.

Once you've worked up a thirst in this hot and steamy market, exclusive cocktails and mocktails will deliver some refreshment. Order an iconic regional creation like a Singapore sling or delve into tropical flavours, such as the Coconut Kiss or the Golden Tropics Fizz. Rounding out this nostalgic showcase, there are artisan vendors spruiking creative goods, lion dancing performances, and face painting and henna for the kids.
