The 34th Bon Odori Festival organized by Japan Club Kuala Lumpur, Japanese School of Kuala Lumpur and Embassy of Japan will be held at Kompleks Sukan Negara on 17th July.

Many Malaysians participate in this event every year and more than 40 thousand were gathered at this festival last year. This is the largest Japanese Cultural Event in Malaysia and can be said to be the largest Bon Odori Festival in the world.

For this upcoming event, we strongly recommend you to go to the festival by public transport due to the limited number of parking bays which will lead to heavy traffic. Free shuttle bus service from the KTM Shah Alam Station to the Kompleks Sukan Negara and vice versa will be available.

We warmly welcome you to come forth and enjoy this festival with us this year!
