It’s festive here!
While we have many impressive mooncake offerings for you to enjoy, Pavilion Bukit Jalil still has more to offer! No Mid-Autumn celebration would be complete without a lantern parade or a lively marketplace for you to explore and experience with your loved ones.
From August 19 to September 11, Pavilion Bukit Jalil is hosting a Carnival of Joy with various activities and workshops. Learn a thing or two about culture and heritage from the traditional lantern making workshops, get inspired by the creative instrument and dance performances and let yourselves be swept away by the beautiful Lantern Parade.
