The 2025 Rompin Beach Bash is here for fans of sand and performance
From 13 to 15 June 2025, the tranquil beaches of Villea Rompin Resort & Golf roared to life as the Rompin Beach Bash took over the coastline. Hosted by By The Billions, the weekend-long festival drew over 300 attendees, a vibrant mix of 4×4 owners, motorcycle enthusiasts, campers, and families, united by a shared love of adventure and the outdoors.
Participants arrived from all over Malaysia, with many beginning their journey at Ironman 4×4’s store in Kuala Lumpur before convoying to Rompin. Along the way, the group expanded with drivers from Seremban, Melaka, Kuantan and more joining in at a rendezvous in Muadzam Shah. Now that’s an awesome turn out.
Moreover, the final leg was a 3-kilometre off-road dash across the sands, a fitting prelude to a weekend of excitement. The event was powered by major sponsors like Grantt Lubricants, Michelin, AMP Tires, Firemaple, Ironman 4×4 and Tough Dog, with over RM40,000 in prizes awarded across competitions and lucky draws.
Local businesses and communities, including M4TREC and Buragas Cycles, also lent support. International participants from Singapore, Vietnam and even the Netherlands added a global flavor, bonding with locals over stories, food and campfires which, at the end of the day, is the essence of which the whole event is about.
On top of that, Saturday also saw a full schedule of action-packed events. The morning kicked off with the Outdoor Cooking Challenge, featuring flavors from Mexican to Asian fusion, with Firemaple prizes on the line. Later, M4TREC hosted a hands-on 4×4 recovery workshop on the beach, blending education with entertainment.
In the afternoon, 32 vehicles tackled the 4×4 Sand Challenge, a thrilling time-trial course through coastal forest and dunes. Khairuddin from Johor claimed victory in his Suzuki Jimny, earning AMP off-road tyres from Red Springs. Meanwhile, the Motorcycle Beach Drag, sponsored by Michelin, drew crowds as 50 custom bikes raced for cash and tyres.
“The response was incredible,” said Afiq Feisal of By The Billions. “People came together from all walks of life — racing, cooking, and camping side-by-side.” Rompin Beach Bash successfully bridged the gap between brands and adventurers, proving that no matter your background, the spirit of outdoor adventure is universal.
