KL Park Festival 2025
KL Park Festival (KLPF) is returning this year from 17th to 26th October 2025 at Taman Tasik Titiwangsa. Opening daily at 9am-11pm, the festival brings 12 different zones to Klang Valley folks looking to spend their weekends beyond the malls.
Here’s a look at the creative garden showcases and different activities to catch during the event.
What is KL Park Festival?
Organised by Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL), KL Park Festival 2025 is a biennial event that celebrates urban greenery and nature. The festival highlights the crucial role of parks and green spaces as a space for recreational activities, leisure activities, wildlife conservation, clean air, and flood mitigation.
This year’s theme ASEAN Unity in Diversity aims to highlight the rich cultural and heritage diversity of Malaysia, while also showcasing unique landscapes, sculptures, plants, products, and garden designs from ASEAN member countries.
What to expect at KL Park Festival?
A nature-aesthetic event simultaneously showcasing Southeast Asian heritage? It sounds compelling and magical.
DBKL highlighted 12 different attractions and activities that will take place in the festival. Here are three must-see attractions that you don’t want to miss:
Mystical Titiwangsa

Another event repeated for this year’s KLPF, KL Balcony Showdown returns for the public to participate in the art of transforming a small urban space, such as a balcony, into a little space to make urban living more easy on the eyes. This year, a total of 19 participants have been shortlisted for this competition.
For the uninitiated, you can find past winners and their balconies here, to get an idea of how the balconies are decorated.

As for more exhibitions, prepare to be awed by the ASEAN Sculpture Gardens. This exhibition features sculptures by invited guests from ASEAN member countries and doubles as a competition. The theme for the sculptures is “Unity in Diversity”, and is broken into three different categories: Ground Sculpture, Floating Sculpture, and Hanging Sculpture.

If you’re coming with family and friends, join Outdoor Adventures which offers recreational and leisure activities available for all ages to participate in. And for horticulture enthusiasts, the seminar series titled Nature Sparks might pique your interest. This segment features seminars, talks, and forum discussions that covers urban-related topics such as urban sustainability and development, with speakers from government agencies, professionals, and NGOs.
All the while roaming around the festival grounds looking at colourful exhibitions, visitors are bound to find themselves hungry and in need of a cold beverage. To combat this, ASEAN Market Place serves Halal ASEAN cuisine alongside sale of plants, flowers, landscaping tools, and unique local crafts.
