Good Vibes: Refunds, Donations & The Festival's Future

Good Vibes: Refunds, Donations & The Festival's Future

Future Sound Asia has announced a refund mechanism for ticket holders after the cancellation of the 2023 Good Vibes Festival last month. The FSA told ticket holders that it would be appreciated if they could spare or defer any amount of the refund, saying this would help “save GVF”.

However there has been some backlash to this request, with some wondering why they should need to fork out their own cash to help “save GVF”

We explore this today with Wan Alman, Director Of Entertainment at Future Sound Asia. Among other things, we dive into the economic impact of the event cancellations, crisis management in this industry, and whether Good Vibes still has a Future.

Produced by: Kishan Sivaswamy

Presented by: Roshan Kanesan
