Mari Ber-REMPAH Carnival 2018, Tamarind Square Cyberjaya

If an Instagrammable 110 year old train depot in Sentul West is not your thing, then head on down to REMPAH 2018, held at Tamarind Square, Cyberjaya. Ya know, that place with the 24 hours bookstore...You can expect everything under one roof: Food, music, arts and crafts. Basically a mixture of everything hence also the event name REMPAH (apparently having food-named events is a crowd pleaser ah. REMPAH la...Tiffin la...next we'll get - Rojak, Laksa and Burger Carnival without the actual food). 
Held from 9.16am to 9.16pm on the great Malaysia Day (16 September), REMPAH 2018 is organised by One Nation Fits All (ONFA), with the support of prominent partners such as Big Bad Wolf, BookXcess Sdn Bhd, Sunway Education Group, Balai Seni Negara, GanForHire, Tujuan Gemilang, Village Grocer and others. 

Participation at REMPAH 2018 is free for all Malaysians, as exhibitors or just as visitors. That's right. FREE FOR ALL. Local talents are invited to exhibit or showcase their arts and crafts at the designated areas in Tamarind Square, Cyberjaya. 

Walk down memory lane and create new memories at the “Heritage Street” area, with its showcase of vintage decorations and items. Meanwhile, Balai Seni Negara will showcase their exhibit titled “A Place Called Home”, which depicts the lineage and history of Malaysia.
