PENANG :

 The opening weekend of Penang International Food Festival (PIFF) 2022 had welcomed some 170,000 festival goers, a feat that surpassed all expectations. 

This year, the Festival also supported the Penang State Government's 'Opposite Side of the Island – Seberang Perai' campaign by launching the opening weekend of PIFF 2022 in Batu Kawan.

At the same time, the PIFF is constantly evolving to keep up with the times by leveraging the state's diverse landscapes and introducing new and attractive concepts.

The Festival has also successfully aligned itself with the Penang Tourism Master Plan by bringing the Festival across the island and mainland and to unique settings like the SPICE Rooftop Garden, Tropical Spice Garden in Teluk Bahang, Gertak Sanggul and KOMTAR Walk.

First inaugurated in 2017, the PIFF has been instrumental in promoting Penang to locals and visitors by showcasing our world-renowned foodscape, from hawker culture to cafe, restaurant and hotel food scene through the major events which come under the Festival such as the Street Food Festival (SFF) and Taste of Penang (TOP) as well as a host of other mini festivals. 

The food for sale during the opening weekend were all sold out, generating income for our local businesses and small vendors.

In line with our Penang2030 vision of a 'Family-Focused Green and Smart State that Inspires the Nation', PIFF fosters a strong and closely-knit sense of unity and community across Penang. This, of course, is done through a shared space for everyone to bond over food.
