IPOH, — Persiaran Bandaraya Ipoh came alive as thousands of visitors thronged the area to take part in Hingo Fest 2025. (‘hingo’ is a Perak dialect meaning lively and vibrant).
The two-day annual festival features a wide range of engaging activities designed to appeal to visitors of all ages.


Among the highlights are Street Soccer matches held along the streets, as well as Kopi Talk sessions, where visitors can learn about coffee-brewing techniques and appreciate the artistry of latte art.
