4 Xciting reasons why you’ll want to join the Tiger Street Food Virtual Festival

Following the success of its first virtual street food festival in 2020, Tiger Beer is back to champion local street food culture with the Tiger Street Food Virtual Festival. This year, it’s all about the X—bringing together an epic collision of Malaysian street food and streetwear in a fully immersive virtual world.

From exclusive collaborations to interactive games and experiences, here’s what you can expect from the festival—and four reasons why you’ll want to sign up!

Xclusive streetwear collabs

The Hype Store

Just as street food is integral to our local street culture, so has streetwear influenced the diverse ways of life in Malaysia, allowing people to express themselves freely. This is why Tiger is proud to highlight both at its festival’s forefront this year, breaking the boundaries of street food while promoting self-expression through local streetwear. The exciting mashup sees exclusive collaborations with renowned local streetwear brands including EK Collective, TNT Co, The Swagger Salon, Eversince, Pestle & Mortar, and Dissyco.

Each brand has designed two limited-edition streetwear apparel, one of which will be included in the weekly Hypefeast Drop—featuring the street food dish that inspired the merchandise, as well as a Tiger Beer and a Tiger Crystal. These drops will be available in limited quantities on a first come first served basis exclusively via the Hype Store within the virtual festival. Meanwhile, the other limited-edition merchandise will be available for anyone at the virtual festival to purchase at the Hype Store throughout the duration of the festival.

Xtraordinary street food

As for the food, Tiger has upped the ante on its efforts to support the local street food scene, presenting over 100 street food vendors from across the Klang Valley, Penang, Johor Bahru and Ipoh. From bak kut teh to Ipoh chicken rice, you’ll be spoilt for choice with a greater variety of classic and innovative dishes to try than before. The best part is, you don’t even have to leave your house or go through the hassle of finding parking as the dishes will be delivered to your doorstep!

While you’re ordering your preferred dishes, might we suggest completing your meal with an ice-cold Tiger Beer and Tiger Crystal to heighten the experience? After all, festivalgoers can enjoy special promotions on beer purchases at the festival as well as participating supermarkets, hypermarkets, coffee shops, and restaurants.

Xciting games and experiences

Tiger Coins collected from games can be used to redeem vouchers to purchase dishes, beers, and exclusive merchandise

To make things even more exciting, festivalgoers can participate in two interactive games within the virtual world. Not to worry, the avatars of Lizz Chloe and Joshua Michael will be there to host you and bring you through the mechanics of the games, namely Street Food Dash and Streetwear Hunt. You’ll want to aim for a place on the leaderboard as the top three scorers for both games will win extra Tiger Coins, which can be used to redeem vouchers to purchase even more dishes, beers, and exclusive merchandise.

Xpress yourself and be rewarded

Dress up your avatar with cool streetwear apparel and snap a photo at the photo walls to win more Tiger Coins!

That’s not all—there are other cool ways to win and spend your Tiger Coins at the virtual festival. For example, you can exchange your coins for exclusive apparel for your avatar via the Xclusive Store, then take an OOTD within the virtual world and share it on your social media platforms to win additional Tiger Coins. In other words, the more you engage in the virtual world, the more you’ll be rewarded in real life! (Protip: You can always check the information counter/tutorial at the Central Area for the list of ways you can earn coins daily.)
