Planning wholesome family activities can be a daunting task — especially when you have to take into consideration multiple persons’ preferences and schedules. However, for these couple of months, we’ve got you covered with options that will be part of fond family memories.
Yes, you’ve watched Dr. Strange in the Multiverse of Madness — so what now? From side-splitting shows to decadent symphonies, you will not want to miss out on these listed events. Whether you’re a new comer to the world of comedy or jazz, remember that there’s a first time for everything. Even if you are already frequently consuming these materials, you’re bound to enjoy these high-end features.
Another plus side is that you will be supporting Malaysia’s entertainment world, an industry that has been struggling to get back on its feet even as lockdown sanctions are lifted.
For the months of May and June, these are the family activities, events and shows to experience with your loved ones:
The Great British Circus

This set of performers are planning their big comeback after the pandemic, and they are touring several locations in Malaysia to dazzle their spectators. From acrobatic feats that will astound you, to high-octane stunts, be ready to have a night full of wonderment with the entire family. The Great British Circus also partners with multiple local charity organisations to truly allow everyone to experience the joy of live entertainment — so your ticket purchases also go into their effort.
The crew is anticipating record breaking attendance, so be sure to snap up those tickets fast! Some are already sold out. The show will be in Bukit Jalil from 3rd June until 26th June.
