This little patch of fun in the country’s administrative centre is touted the first “festivals” park of its kind. Launched in mid-2015, it is situated on the banks of the scenic Putrajaya Lake at Precinct 2 (next to Monumen Alaf Baru).

The park’s location makes for a picturesque setting for its array of attractions at various zones. These include the Skyrides Balloon, SkyWarrior Rainforest Challenge, SkyStage, SkyTaste, SkyGallery, SkyDemo, SkyKids and SkyKids Warrior.
