If you're looking to bask in the sense of national pride, you won't wanna miss the AMBOI@TRX weekend festival happening from 6 to 8 September!
Envisioned as a grand showcase of urban arts and cultural talent, AMBOI@TRX is set to host both new and established artists, musicians, singers, and craftsmen over the weekend.
Everyone hoping to have a family-friendly fun time is invited to join in the cultural vibes at the festival that will be taking place at TRX's sprawling Raintree Plaza.
AMBOI@TRX Weekend Festival
Location: Raintree Plaza, TRX
Time: 10am to 10pm
Date: 6 - 8 September, 2024
1. A wide variety of entertaining cultural performances
Over three days, AMBOI@TRX will shine the spotlight on performances showcasing Malaysian heritage. Look forward to household names such as Ramli Sarip and Aisha Retno who will entertain on stage.
There will also be bharatnatyam dances, silat showcases, and community joget lambak sessions for attendees to appreciate.
2. Workshops that let you pick up traditional artistry skills
To help you get in touch with Malaysian traditional artistry, there will be workshops for local handicraft such as nipa palm weaving, traditional block printing, and beading. Bring home hands-on knowledge (and also your own creations) as you get in touch with your Malaysian identity.
3. A bustling market selling an assortment of traditional arts and crafts
There's plenty to enjoy about creations made with decades of heritage and history, and you can easily grab some for yourself at the vendors proudly selling their wares at AMBOI@TRX.
For example, you can get eco-friendly woven handbags by Ravaka, patterned clothing by Corak, and patchwork kits by Queen L Craft.
4. Exhibitions that recognise Malaysian artisans
Of course, what would an arts-and-culture festival be without proper showings of work created by talented local creators?
At AMBOI@TRX, you'll be invited to appreciate fresh and inspiring works by upcoming artists at the UOB Art Space, while also seeing how food can be turned into art courtesy of The Rojak Projek.
If you want to experience some authentic Malaysian arts and culture vibes, head on to TRX@AMBOI this weekend with your friends and family!
