Gawai Dayak Harvest Festival

About This Event

Come on June, Sarawak really buzzes with energy during Gawai Dayak. It is a two-day event that celebrates the harvest and the deep traditions of Borneos native groups. You can hear gongs beating all around, smell the home-cooked meals, and feel the excitement as folks come together. People visiting get a real taste of Iban ways through colorful outfits, lively dances, and important ceremonies. When night comes, the longhouses throw open their doors for everyone. Guests sit down to genuine local eats and that friendly party vibe.
