[Upcoming Event] The Tales of The Moon @ Sungei Wang Plaza
Kuala Lumpur, September 2022 – This year marks the
45th anniversary of Sungei Wang Plaza, and what better way to
commemorate the occasion than by winning The BrandLaureate BestBrands Awards
2021-2022, Nation's Pride Brand of the Year in Nation's Most ICONIC &
Renowned Mall. Indeed, this is a timely acknowledgement as they prepare to
launch the iconic Sungei Wang Plaza's Mid-Autumn Festival. This year, Sungei
Wang Plaza debuts its latest cultural and art installation, 'Mid-Autumn The
Tales of the Moon,' which will run from September 1st to September 25th, 2022.
"After a three-year hiatus from hosting a full-fledged Mid-Autumn
Festival, it is now time for us to bring back one of Sungei Wang Plaza's most
anticipated events of the year, the Mid-Autumn Lantern Parade." This
parade brings back many happy memories of exciting times, as well as the rich
history of Sungei Wang Plaza. Mr Ng Yih Chen, Chairman of Sungei Wang
Plaza Management Corporation, says, "The Mid-Autumn Festival has always
been a platform to promote our cultural and heritage to locals and tourists
alike."
With a giant inflatable moon at the Centre Court, a giant rabbit at
the Main Entrance, four hand-painted jade rabbits, and an entire street filled
with over 500 lanterns along the Lantern Walk, the mall is transformed into an
insta-worthy photo and video-taking location.
Sungei Wang Plaza will also be handing out over 500 goodie bags
to invite shoppers to join for the upcoming Lantern Parade on September 10th,
2022 at the Main Entrance. On that day, there will be a variety of activities
and performances, including a drumming workshop, a lantern painting workshop,
and a colouring contest. A line-up of performances will begin at 3.00pm at the
Centre Court, followed by the launch of 'Mid-Autumn The Tales of the Moon' at
6.00pm. At the event, you can also meet your favourite local celebrities, @kelkelhee,
@klayheng, @adelinewongg, and @zuvia p from Dissy and Co. Yang Berhormat Tuan
Fong Kui Lun, Member of Parliament for Bukit Bintang, will lead the Lantern
Parade, which will cover a 1-kilometer radius around Bukit Bintang. Over 32
lion dance troupes will perform at the Lantern Parade, including two lion
dances for the Launching Ceremony! This is an event not to be missed.
Sungei Wang Plaza is also pleased to announce Magnum as
the main sponsor, who has consistently supported their cultural and
CSR events. Their event sponsors include Tourism Malaysia, the
Federation of Selangor and the Federal Territory Dragon and Lion Dance.
Persatuan Hakka Wilayah Persekutuan dan Selangor, Persatuan Ka Yin
Wilayah KL & Selangor, DJI, Becon Stationery, The Malaysian Book of
Records, and Craft Space are among the organisations involved.
Tales from the Moon
As you enter the mall, look up to see Malaysia's Largest Inflatable
Moon, which spans 10 metres and is hung at the Centre Court. Take your time
gazing into the open space as you admire this record-breaking moon in the
mall's centre. The Malaysia Book of Records has certified the 10 metre diameter
moon as the Largest Inflatable Moon in Malaysia.
The Jade Rabbit's Tales
A 5 metre tall Jade Rabbit greets you as you drive past or enter
Sungei Wang Plaza via the Main Entrance, along with four hand-painted artworks
by our four local college and university partners, namely Multimedia
University (MMU), New Era University College, Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman (UTAR),
and Malaysian Institute of Art (MIA).
The Lantern Walk
