Myanmar in Focus: Mingalabar! Festival Yangon

To celebrate the 55-year relationship between France and Myanmar and in line with the tradition of the major street art festivals held in France, this weekend saw the Institut Français de Birmanie host a 3-day long city-scale festival intended for Yangon’s inhabitants – a set of artistic and poetic performances in the heart of the city.

This was a truly magnificent occasion and we hope it will only help to further encourage the creation of many more events like this in the future. It made us even more proud to call Yangon home.

Hats off to all involved and fingers crossed it won’t be long until we see something like it again.
