Festive launch for shopping carnival
By JAYAGANDI JAYARAJ
THE Pavilion Kuala Lumpur's shopping carnival, which is being held in conjunction with the Malaysian Mega Sale Carnival that runs from July 5 to Sept 1, was launched on Saturday with lots of colour and music.
Tagged Sale and The City, the official launch by Tourism Ministry secretary general Datuk Dr Ong Hong Peng began with full fanfare in the mall's forecourt.
The event attracted many local and foreign shoppers with its variety of shows. These included synchronised performances by drum percussion group Rabak and the Assemble Marching Band by the Victoria Institution, Kuala Lumpur.
One for the album: Visitors posing for photographs with some of the performers. They were also busker-style street activities in the vicinity.
Shoppers at the mall also enjoyed extended shopping hours for the day until 11.30pm at participating anchor tenants such as Parkson Pavilion and Tangs and more than 100 specialty stores mall-wide.
Shoppers can expect themed sales promotions, shopping contests, redemption programmes, weekly activities and fashion shows over the coming weeks.
The Sale and the City is to excite both novice and seasoned shoppers as they will be able to indulge and experience the mall's different precincts with the very best in shopping, dining and rejuvenating with the shopping centre's astounding discounts and special offers, said Pavilion marketing general manager Kung Suan Ai at the launch.
