“IOI City Mall is set to become the largest shopping mall in Malaysia with an additional 1 million sqft of net lettable area (NLA), bringing the total NLA of IOI City Mall to 2.5 million sqft. It will lead the way as the nation’s premier shopping and lifestyle destination,” said IOI Properties Group (IOIPG) chief executive officer Datuk Voon Tin Yow.
Beyond retail, the mall presents the addition of IOI City Farm, an 18,000sqft indoor “edutainment” exhibition space that provides family-friendly activities to learn about plants and animals.
Designed with an indoor farm concept to bring the outdoor experience indoors, the new edutainment exhibition consists of three zones for visitors to interact and observe more than 70 species of plants, small cute animals and fishes:
> The Plant zone, known as Green Land, displays aquaponics and carnivorous plants.
> Animal Zone, called Little Rimba, will feature adorable pets such as sugar gliders, hedgehogs, rabbits and fennec foxes.
> Aquatic Zone, known as Fresh Water World, will be showcasing large sturgeons and arapaima from the Amazon.
Phase II will also feature the new IOI Grand Exhibition and Convention Centre, a 40,000sqft pillar-less hall with state-of-the art facilities with a capacity of 2,000 guests for wedding banquets and approximately 3,000 delegates for conferences.
Plus, there will be the IOI Sports Centre – a rooftop sports centre experience with 15 badminton courts and two covered futsal arenas.
These new additions are expected to further elevate existing attractions at the mall such as:
> Icescape Ice Rink, the biggest in Malaysia recognised by the Malaysia Book of Records.
> District 21, a 52,000sqft indoor atrium adventure theme park.

IOI City Mall promotes sustainable initiatives by providing more than 14,000 parking spaces equipped with an automated licence plate recognition (LPR) system. Besides encouraging contactless payment for a more hygienic experience, the system utilises ticketless parking to reduce paper waste and carbon ink printing.
To instil the importance of environmental ethics through green efforts, solar panels have been installed on the rooftop of IOI City Mall in 2020, which has generated 8,533 MWh of electricity, equivalent to carbon emissions reduction of 5,922 TCO2 to date.
It is also equipped with chilled water thermal energy storage (TES) tanks with a combined capacity of 62,000 cubic metres, which contributes to efficient use of electricity and thereby helps to reduce carbon emissions.
