To be held at Putrajaya Square in Precinct 3, the event will open from 10am to 10pm daily (except Sunday, when it wraps up at 5pm).

You can look forward to tons of fun activities and performances, spread across 14 zones. 

For example, you can try your hand at e-sports (Zone 3) or treat your taste buds at the food festival (Zone 12).

You can feed some elephants at Zone 10, courtesy of Pahang’s National Elephant Conservation Centre Kuala Gandah. Also available here are horses for riding, a cat show and an exhibit of wildlife trophies by Perhilitan.

There will be cultural and musical shows at the main stage (Zone 7) and five other spots throughout the venue.
