Fest lights up the night with art, entertainment

PUTRAJAYA this week shines as a lit-up fantasyland with Lentera Putrajaya 2025.

The festival in Precinct 4 of the administrative capital features illuminated garden decorations, luminous sculptures, cultural performances, and exciting games.

Themed “Where Light Meets Culture”, Lentera Putrajaya’s trees decked in LEDs, glowing sculptures that blend traditional Malaysian motifs with contemporary designs and artistic installations will leave visitors spellbound.

There are also Orang Asli and Borneo-themed gardens, installations inspired by fantasy and sci-fi movies, and even a floating display on Putrajaya Lake.

It is a great attraction for quality family time, romantic evening walks or fun exploration.
