THE Malaysia Midnight Sale Carnival made a spectacular return over the Labour Day weekend, drawing record-breaking crowds to Mahkota Parade, Melaka, and significantly boosting both tourism and the local economy.
The event, held in conjunction with Melaka Bila Larut Malam – May edition 2025, delivered a high-energy mix of shopping, entertainment, and cultural showcases that left a lasting impact on both locals and visitors, as well as on the state’s tourism and retail sectors.
An influx of shoppers led to high hotel occupancy rates and brought significant benefits to local businesses.
The carnival received an overwhelming response from domestic tourists as well as visitors from Singapore and Indonesia, many who took the opportunity to
shop during their vacation.
This successful event not only generates new income streams for the local business
community but also further solidifies Melaka’s reputation as a premier shopping and tourism destination.
A key highlight was the Special Sale Moment from 10pm to midnight on May 3, where shoppers with a minimum spend of RM250 stood a chance to win prizes worth over RM20,000.
Adding to the excitement, the carnival featured a vibrant lineup of activities, including raffles and giveaways, a balloon drop bonanza, “Lucky Pick” and “Spin & Win”, a mall treasure hunt, colouring and drawing contests and Labour Day outfit competition.
This event was supported by Tourism Malaysia, Tourism Melaka, Mahkota Parade,
Parkson, Grand Swiss-Belhotel Melaka, and Ojas Electronic.
The organiser, Jalakx Sdn Bhd extends its heartfelt appreciation to all partners, sponsors, and supporters for making the event a resounding success.
The Malaysia Midnight Sale Carnival is set to return next year, promising an even bigger and better shopping experience. - May 19, 2025
