Pesta Bung Bratak
The Pesta Bung Bratak, or Bung Bratak Festival, will take place on May 1 at Bung Bratak located at Kampung Tembawang in Bau.
Open to the public, this festival aims to showcase Bidayuh traditional culture, dance and music to everyone who attends. In addition to cultural performances, there will be a “Dayung Sangon” parade, where traditionally garbed girls in the community join the procession.
One of the attractions at the festival is the newly completed Bung Bratak Heritage Center (BBHC), which includes a lodging facility that costs RM100 per person (inclusive of breakfast, lunch, dinner and a barbecue).
The area is surrounded by virgin rainforest, with a waterfall nearby.
