An immersive festival showcasing the symbiosis of food, art, and music amidst the natural splendour of Taiping
Spritzer EcoPark enchants visitors by bringing home the northern lights through an Aurora light show that illuminates the night sky in Taiping over the last weekend, 27th April to 1st May 2024. This breathtaking show is a standout feature of Spritzer’s Foods, Art & Music (“F.A.M.”) Carnival, an event generously supported by Perak Tourism.
The F.A.M. Carnival delivers a whirlwind of activities from 27th April to 1st May 2024, running daily from 1:00pm to 12:00am. Attendees enjoy the vibrant atmosphere, which commenced with an opening ceremony on 27th April. At the heart of this extravaganza lies the breathtaking Aurora Light Show, illuminating the skies of Taiping each night with dazzling moving streams, ripples, to arcs of colours, leaving attendees mesmerized.
For food lovers, the F.A.M. Carnival offers enticing local food stalls for visitors to choose from. Foodies can also take part in the Big Eater Challenge, challenging the influencer, Amoi Saka, on day two of the carnival to eat the most satay within 8 minutes. Once again, Amoi Saka emerged victorious by consuming 80 pieces of satay within the time limit.
In addition to the Aurora Light Show, art enthusiasts immersed themselves in colourful installations and exhibitions showcasing the works of local and regional artists. These creative expressions will ignite the imagination.
As the sun sets, the F.A.M. Carnival will come alive with the rhythms of local music acts. Visitors will be entertained by the performances of Shidi Data, Azzaraband, Han Budak Cina, Amoi Saka, Ukays, and Bueh, among others, as they take the stage and command the audience with their infectious melodies and captivating stage presence. Throughout the carnival, visitors can add a splash of fun to their carnival day at the daily foam party experience.
On Tuesday, April 30th, YB Loh Sze Yee, State Tourism, Industry, Investment, and Corridor Development Committee chairman, paid a surprise visit to grace the event, highlighting the significance of this celebration. YB Mr Loh Sze Yee expressed, “It is truly heartwarming to see such a dynamic fusion of food, arts, and music bringing vibrant energy to Taiping. Events like the F.A.M. Carnival not only showcase the cultural richness and creative spirit of our community but also play a crucial role in boosting local tourism and economic development. This Aurora Light Show, mimicking the magical northern lights, is not just a feast for the eyes but a symbol of how innovation and tradition can blend to create something truly spectacular. As we celebrate 150 years of Taiping, it is our commitment to continue supporting such initiatives that enrich our community and enhance Taiping’s appeal as a must-visit destination in Malaysia.
