Celebrating a nostalgic Raya

Fahrenheit88 presents Raya Melodies, featuring the past in an exquisite showcase of legacy and tradition

KUALA LUMPUR: Relieve the nostalgic charm of Raya Melodies at Fahrenheit88 from now until May16.

In partnership with The National Archives of Malaysia, Fahrenheit88’s Raya celebrations present a golden ambience of yesteryears against a backdrop of traditional kampung huts, featuring an exquisite showcase of legacy and tradition inspired by the life and work of Malaysian performing icons Tan Sri P. Ramlee and Puan Sri Saloma.

In a tribute to Tan Sri P. Ramlee and Puan Sri Saloma, the P. Ramlee Gallery on Level 2 presents the P. Ramlee dan Saloma Exhibition – Aku, Dia dan Lagu. Here, fans will get the chance to watch snippets of their movies, browse old movie posters and soak in a rare display of personal artefacts of the two icons, including clothing made famous in their movies and performances.

Get in the Raya mood at the Raya Craft Market at the Ground Atrium where Fahrenheit88 partners with Kraftangan Malaysia to present unique Raya souvenirs and a comprehensive collection of gift ideas including artisanal merchandise, festive wear, handmade accessories, as well as jewellery. Here, shoppers can also try their hand at a game or two of traditional game congkak or snap Instagram-worthy photos with traditional props.
