DBKL confident KL Park Festival 2023 will attract crowd

KUALA LUMPUR, March 3 — The Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) is confident that the colourful Kuala Lumpur Park Festival 2023 which begins tomorrow, at Taman Tasik Titiwangsa here, will be well-received despite the unpredictable weather.

DBKL Landscape and Recreation Department director Zulkifli Endut said this was because of the on-going school holidays and the event is at a strategic location.

“Even when there is no event being held here, people will be thronging the park for recreation. There are about 1,000 parking lots available including at the Istana Budaya, the National Art Gallery, and Kuala Lumpur Health Clinic areas.

“We also provide shuttle services to take visitors to the event location,” he told reporters at the KL Park Festival 2023 media preview, here today.

Earlier, DBKL had targeted over 100,000 visitors to attend the festival from March 4 to 12 which opens daily from 9am to 10pm.

Zulkifli said preparations for the festival has reached almost 95 per cent, before its opening tomorrow adding that what’s left to be done are just some minor touch ups, site cleaning and landscape spruce up.

He said the KL Park Festival 2023 themed Malaysian Arts and Flora Garden will showcase a variety of official flowers and plants of towns and cities in Malaysia presented in the form of artistic designs.
