About Sabay
Born in Paris in 2016, Sabay was launched in 2019 by Dara Thong. His commitment is reflected in the various actions he has undertaken throughout his life. In fact, he founded the cultural and humanitarian association Samaki Kohn Khmer and is now involved with Evaan Market and Sabay Events.
Sabay, which literally means "joy" in Cambodian, is an event concept inspired by the cultural and artistic emergence of Asia. An atypical blend of ancestral values and dual culture that proudly showcases the aesthetics and cultures of Southeast Asia. To participate in Sabay events is to identify, in one way or another, with a unique history, art and identity that is one of the richest cultures in the world.
