Looking for the perfect place to organise your wedding, company event, or business meeting?

From Resorts World Awana in Genting Highlands to Resorts World Kijal in Terengganu, these resorts are equipped with convention centres, meeting rooms, and customisable spaces, designed to bring your events to life. The best part is, they offer various packages so you can book these venues in advance for your planned events!

Jom, let's take a closer look at each venue and what they have to offer:

1. Resorts World Awana (RWA)

Resorts World Awana has been transformed into an elegant, rainforest-enveloped oasis with luxuriously refurbished rooms and suites that exude gracious and sophisticated calm. As you enter the nature-inspired resort, you'll be wow-ed by service par excellence and unmatched tropical getaway experiences!

You'll have the luxury of choosing up to 16 function rooms that are suitable for medium-sized trainings, seminars, and talks, such as Kenari Room 1 to 7.

For bigger scale events, you can utilise Dewan Wawasan 1 to 4, as these halls are equipped with the necessary audio facilities perfect for any kind of event, like meetings, conventions, conferences, annual dinners, or weddings for up to 500 pax.

Aside from that, you'll be able to take in a breath of fresh air as you stay and unwind at the resort set amidst the green lungs of Genting Highlands.

Staying at RWA also means you get to enjoy the wide range of facilities they provide their guests, such as the outdoor heated swimming pool and an Insta-worthy gym! Now you can self-recharge and stay active after work. :D  

You can check out RWA's available packages here.

Need a bigger space to host large-scale events? You can make use of the massive parking area at RWA, where event organisers can host all kinds of events such as car launches, glamping, and even music festivals!

If you've ever dreamed of a garden wedding accompanied by cooling weather, look no further than The Great Lawn located at RWA. Just picture it: A breathtaking view of the rolling hills, all while being surrounded by a lush, 130 million-year-old rainforest on your special day.

2. Genting SkyWorlds Theme Park (GSW)

3. Genting International Convention Centre (GICC) at Resorts World Genting (RWG)

With up to 18 meeting rooms that can be combined to suit specific needs, you can host banquets, meetings, and conferences at RWG. Rest assured that at GICC, the halls, meeting rooms, and convention centres are fully equipped with the latest audio, video, and lighting systems that deliver the best performance.

If you need a bigger space for your conference, or for entertainment purposes such as concerts and gala dinners, the Grand Ballroom @ GICC can accommodate up to 3,500 people. Spanning four halls and 26,000 sq ft, the Grand Ballroom is flanked with three additional halls, a VIP room, reception areas, and grand foyers.

4. Resorts World Langkawi (RWL)

RWL's six meeting rooms, multi-purpose hall, and Grand Ballroom are conducive for medium-sized lectures, trainings, and seminars. From a fully equipped PA system to slide and video projectors, these rooms have everything you need.

The Grand Ballroom is a stylish and sophisticated venue in RWL that is ideal for meetings, conventions, conferences, annual dinners, and weddings. With its impeccable finishes and modern facilities, the ballroom will add a touch of Mediterranean flair to your event. It can accommodate a larger scale of up to 700 pax, and be divided into two halls.

5. Resorts World Kijal (RWK)

Improving communication and teamwork among employees are often accomplished through team-building events. This is where RWK comes into the picture, as the green hills and beach that flank the resort are ideal locations for you to take your team-building activities to the next level.

If you're up for a bit of a challenge, why not take a spin on the all-terrain vehicles (ATV) on a dirt road with your colleagues? It may be a bumpy ride, but it's great for all you thrill-seekers out there. On the other hand, if you're more of a board game kinda person, go ahead and compete with your co-workers with the life-sized 'Snakes and Ladders' game. It's time to bring out your competitive side!  

Similarly to RWG and RWA, there are plenty of function rooms you may utilise for all your meeting needs.

RWK also has its own Grand Ballroom, which can be divided into three halls. Capable of seating 300 pax, it is perfect for meetings, conventions, conferences, annual dinners, and weddings.

If you need a lil' more convincing, here's what other Malaysians had to say after hosting events at these resorts

For Sheryn Saw, who is part of the Events and Promotions team at Great Eastern, GICC offered a wonderful experience, from the venue to the service.

"The team in charge of our events is always attentive to detail and responsive to our requests. Be it pre-event requirements or ad-hoc requests during the event, they will always give their best to accommodate our requests. There are certainly more events to come, and we definitely look forward to this continuous collaboration with Resorts World Genting!" she said.

Based on a testimonial by Kim Toh, Assistant Brand Marketing Manager of Coway (M) Sdn Bhd, the event venue facilities such as the built-in stage, audio, and screens at the musical amphitheater (Arena of Stars in RWG) ensured their event coordination and planning went smoothly. 

"The crowd management and logistical support by the in-house team were very helpful, and made our event a successful one," she added.

Last but not least, Lazada Malaysia CEO Alan Chan said, "A serene environment and amazing space for our team to truly enjoy the retreat at Awana Genting. Thanks once again for the great hospitality throughout our stay there."

So, what are you waiting for? Head to these accessible and beautiful locations to host fancy dinners, weddings, or conferences!
