Hari Raya is fast approaching, and you know what that means? All shopping malls will be decked out in Raya decorations!

1 Utama Shopping Centre is no exception. From now until 25 April, you can expect to be spellbound by 'Sinar Estetika Aidilfitri', the shopping mall's Raya decorations that perfectly encapsulate the spirit of Eid.

Drawing inspiration from the sacred traditions of malam tujuh likur — also known as the 27th night of Ramadan centred around lights — 1 Utama is welcoming shoppers to step into the Garden of Lights, a world of enchantment. Here, you'll be mesmerised by soft glows from Arabic lanterns — combined with delicate lifelike butterflies and flowers, as well as LED lights — illuminating the mall's LG Oval and Ground Floor Centre Court concourses.

There are nine different lantern designs, all of which incorporate Middle-Eastern-themed motifs with intricate details. The tallest lantern is an impressive centrepiece that towers 17ft high, with many nice selfie spots for you to take photos with family and friends. 

Plus, as the first green mall in Malaysia, 1 Utama's garden is fused together with luminescent lights to reflect the mall's continuous commitment towards sustainability.

Decorations aside, be prepared for a shopping bonanza at various Raya shopping booths, as well as a weekly showcase of cultural performances and workshops

From fashion accessories to a tantalising array of F&B delights, there's definitely something for everyone.

Plus, there's no shortage of entertainment at 1 Utama too. You can expect to catch weekly showcases of musicals, like Egyptian belly dances, wayang kulit, silat, and a variety of Malay dance performances, as well as workshops like Jawi calligraphy and batik painting for you to take part in.
