For many Malaysians, the spirit of Raya is found in the familiar – the patterns of a family songket passed down through generations, the festive decorations that brighten our homes, and the shared games that bridge the gap between the young and old. This year, Sunway Pyramid celebrates the festive season with 'Seindah Corak Aidilfitri', happening from now to 29th March at the LG2 Blue Concourse.
Inspired by the intricate weaves of songket, tenun, batik, and tekat, the festive set-up gives these heritage patterns a new life, making our cultural roots feel both timeless and accessible to a new generation. The concourse is reimagined into a space that celebrates the artistry of traditional Malaysian textiles.
The showcase includes specially curated display of original Malay songket and traditional textiles dating back to the 1920s, thoughtfully assembled by renowned collector Mohammad Khairulanwar Rahmat. These treasured pieces allow visitors to step back in time and take a glimpse into Malaysia's textile legacy, honouring the generations of artistry preserved within each intricate weave.
Additionally, a collaboration between Sunway Pyramid and Sunway University adds interactivity. Visitors can use their smartphones to scan QR codes throughout the concourse to activate an Augmented Reality (AR) experience that reveals the stories, techniques, and symbolism behind each textile motif.
To spark a touch of nostalgia, the concourse also invites visitors to rediscover the simple joys of traditional games such as congkak and batu seremban, alongside festive photo spot at the water fountain.
"This Raya, we warmly invite our shoppers to be part of a celebration where heritage is woven seamlessly into every moment," said Jason Chin, Senior General Manager of Sunway Malls Selangor. "From festive retail experiences and nostalgic traditional games to meaningful acts of giving and immersive cultural showcases, Seindah Corak Aidilfitri brings together the many facets of the season under one roof."
Beyond the concourse, Raya shopping remains an integral part of the season, and Sunway Pyramid stands as a one-stop destination for festive preparations. From sourcing festive attire to preparing for open-house gatherings, shoppers can find everything they need under one roof. Complementing this experience is the Raya Market by Sukaseni at LG1 Foyer, Oasis, offering a curated selection of Raya essentials and handcrafted local finds.
